FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

From time to time, we make oral and written statements that may be considered “forward"forward looking statements”statements" (rather than historical facts).  We are taking advantage of the “safe-harbour”"safe-harbour" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for any forward-looking statements we may make from time to time, including the forward-looking statements in this Annual Report.

You can identify these statements when you see words such as “may”"may", “expect”"expect", “anticipate”"anticipate", “estimate”"estimate", “believe”"believe", “intend”"intend", and other similar expressions.  These forward-looking statements relate, among other items to:

our ability to develop appropriate strategic alliances;

geographic expansion of our business.


We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current plans and expectations.  Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control.  Our actual results could differ materially from those described in our forward-looking statements as a result of the factors described in the “Risk Factors” included elsewhere in this Annual Report, including, among others:

potential fluctuations in our financial results and our difficulties in forecasting;

our ability to repay our debt to lenders;

our ability to retain and attract key personnel;

2



risk of significant delays in product development;

failure to timely develop or license new technologies;

risks relating to any requirement to correct or delay the release of products due to software bugs or errors;

risk of system failure or interruption;


3



problems which may arise in connection with the acquisition or integration of new businesses, products, services, technologies or other strategic relationships;

risks associated with international operations;

risks associated with protecting our intellectual property, and potentially infringing the intellectual property rights of others;

                                          uncertainty about the continued acceptance of the Internet as a viable commercial medium; and

sensitivity to the overall economic environment.

increasingly longer sales cycles

We do not have, and do not undertake, any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.  Because of these risks and uncertainties, the forward-looking statements and circumstances discussed in this Annual Report might not transpire.

D.RISK FACTORS

The following is a summary of certain risks and uncertainties which we face in our business.  This summary is not meant to be exhaustive.  These Risk Factors should be read in conjunction with other cautionary statements which we make in this Annual Report and in our other public reports, registration statements and public announcements.

WE WILL NEED ADDITIONAL CAPITAL AND IF WE ARE UNABLE TO SECURE ADDITIONAL FINANCING WHEN WE NEED IT, WE MAY BE REQUIRED TO SIGNIFICANTLY CURTAIL OR CEASE OUR OPERATIONS.

The Company is

We have not yet profitable.realized profitable operations and have relied on non-operational sources of financing to fund our operations.  Since we began our operations, we have been funded primarily through the sale of securities to investors in a series of private placements, convertible debt instruments, sales of equity to, and investments from, strategic partners, gains from investments, option exercises convertible debt instruments and, to a limited extent, through cash flow from operations.  While our Company’s financial statements for the year-ended December 31, 2006, have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles applicable to a going

9


concern, certain adverse conditions and events cast substantial doubt upon the validity of this assumption. The Company’sCompany has not yet realized profitable operations and has relied on non-operational sources of financing to fund operations.  Our ability to continue as a going concern will be dependent on management’s ability to successfully execute its business plan including a substantial increase in revenue as well as maintaining operating expenses at or near the same level as 2006.  Management’s 2007 business plan includes an increase in revenue and obtain additional forms of debt or equity financing.  As of June 18, 2004, we hadoperating cash and marketable securities of approximately $1.23 million dollars. The Company expects that additional debt or equity financing such as the issuance of loans or debentures, issuance of shares, conversion of warrants and exercise of optionsflow primarily from major new contracts in the amount of $3.7 million will be required in order for the Company to be able to fund its operations through 2004.North America. The Company cannot provide assurance that it will be able to execute on its business plan or assure that efforts to raise such additional financings willwould be successful.

Management believes that continued existence beyond 20042006 is dependent on its ability to increase revenue from sales of existing products, and to expand the scope of its product offering through the expansionwhich entails a combination of internally developed software and partnerships with third parties.

  As of December 31, 2006, we had cash on hand and cash equivalents of approximately $475,000.

We do not have any committed sources of additional financing at this time and we are uncertain whether additional funding will be available when we need it on terms that will be acceptable to us or at all. If we are not able to obtain financing when we need it, we would be unable to carry out our business plan and would have to significantly curtail or cease our operations. We have included in Note 2 to our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2006, a discussion about the ability of our companythe Company to continue as a going concern.

Potential sources of financing include strategic relationships, public or private sales of our shares, debt, convertible securities or other arrangements. If we raise funds by selling additional shares, including common shares or other securities convertible into common shares, the ownership interests of our existing shareholders will be diluted.  If we raise funds by selling preferencepreferred shares, such shares may carry more voting rights, higher dividend payments or more favorable rights upon distribution than those for the common shares.  If we incur debt, the holders of such debt may be granted security interests in our assets.  Because of our potential long termlong-term capital requirements, we may seek to access the public or private equity or debt markets whenever conditions are favorable, even if we do not have an immediate need for additional capital at that time.

The auditors’ report on our 2006 consolidated financial statements includes additional comments that refers to this uncertainty with respect to our ability to continue as a going concern.

WE ARE NOT PROFITABLE AND WE MAY NEVER BECOME PROFITABLE.

We have accumulated net losses of approximately $99.8$109 million as of December 31, 2003.2006.  For the year ended December 31, 20032006 our net loss was $2.8 million.$648,000.  We have never been profitable and expect to continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future.  We cannot assure you that we will earn profits or generate positive cash flows from operations in the future.

OUR

THE LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY INOF OUR CURRENT BUSINESS AS A COMBINED ENTITYJOINT VENTURE WITH GE COMMERCIAL FINANCE, CAPITAL SOLUTIONS MAKES EVALUATING OUR BUSINESS DIFFICULT.

From

In December 2003 we formed the timejoint venture, GE Asset Manager, LLC with GE Capital Solutions. Growing this business venture has required the Company to shift focus from a broad spectrum of customers to focusing on a small number of large clients.  By further investing in our relationship with GE Capital Solutions we were founded in September, 1995 until 1999 we operated solely as an online retailer of computer and other goods.  Since 1999 we have shifted our focus to providing dynamic pricing  solutions..  In October 2001 we acquired ADB Systemer ASA of Norway, a provider of enterprise asset management and electronic procurement software and services.   While ADB Systemer has operated since 1988, we have only a limited operating history as a combined entity on which you can base your evaluation ofare increasing our business and prospects.

risk by becoming substantially dependent on the business generated by the joint venture.

Our business and prospects must be considered in light of the risks, uncertainties and expenses frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of development, particularly companies in new and rapidly evolving markets.  Our business strategy may not be successful and we may not successfully address those risks.

WE MAY EXPERIENCE INCREASINGLY LONGER SALES CYCLES

CYCLES.

A significant portion of our revenue in any quarter is derived from a relatively small number of contracts.  We often experience sales cycles of six (6) to eighteen (18) months.  If the length of our sales cycles increases, our revenues may decrease and our quarterly results would be adversely affected.  In addition, our current and future expense levels are based largely on our investment plans and estimates of future revenues and are, to a large extent, fixed.  We may be unable to adjust spending in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected revenue shortfall.   Any significant shortfall in revenues relative to our planned expenditures would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.

POTENTIAL FLUCTUATIONS IN OUR FINANCIAL RESULTS MAKE FINANCIAL FORECASTING DIFFICULT

DIFFICULT.

Our operating results have varied on a quarterly basis in the past and may fluctuate significantly as a result of a variety of factors, many of which are outside our control. Factors that may affect our quarterly operating results include:

9



general economic conditions as well as economic conditions specific to our industry;

long sales cycles, which characterize our industry;

implementation delays, which can affect payment and recognition of revenue;

any decision by us to reduce prices for our solutions in response to price reductions by competitors;

the amount and timing of operating costs and capital expenditures relating to monitoring or expanding our business, operations and infrastructure; and

the timing of, and our ability to integrate, any future acquisition, technologies or products or any strategic investments or relationships into which we may enter.


Due to these factors, our quarterly revenues and operating results are difficult to forecast.  We believe that period-to-period comparisons of our operating results may not be meaningful and should not be relied upon as an indication of future performance. In addition, it is likely that in one or more future quarters, our operating results will fall below the expectations of securities analysts and investors.  In such event, the trading price of our common shares would almost certainly be materially adversely affected.

OUR SHARE PRICE HAS FLUCTUATED SUBSTANTIALLY AND MAY CONTINUE TO DO SO.

The trading price of our common shares on The Toronto Stock Exchange and on the NASDAQNasdaq Over the Counter Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”) has fluctuated significantly in the past and could be subject to wide fluctuations in the future. The market prices for securities of technology companies have been highly volatile.   These companies have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to their operating performance.  Broad market and industry factors may materially and adversely affect the market price of our common shares, regardless of our operating performance. In addition, fluctuations in our operating results and concerns regarding our competitive position can have an adverse and unpredictable effect on the market price of our shares.

In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class-action litigation has often been instituted against that company. Such litigation, if instituted against us, could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management’s attention and resources, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flow, financial condition and prospects.

YOUR


THE ABILITY TO BUY OR SELL OUR COMMON SHARES ON THE OTCBB MAY BE LIMITED

LIMITED.

On June 3, 2002, we transferred the listing of our common shares from the Nasdaq National Market to the Nasdaq SmallCap Market.Market (now known as the Nasdaq Capital Market).  On August 22, 2002,

11


our common shares were delisted from the Nasdaq SmallCap Market because we did not satisfy the minimum bid price per share requirement for continued listing on that market.  Our common shares immediately became eligible for and began trading on the OTCBB.  The OTCBB is generally considered to be a less efficient market than the Nasdaq National Market or the Nasdaq SmallCap Market on which our shares previously traded.  As a result, your ability to buy or sell our common shares on the OTCBB may be limited.  In addition, since our shares are no longer listed on the Nasdaq National Market or Nasdaq SmallCap Market, our shares may be subject to the “penny stock” regulations described below.  De-listing from the Nasdaq National Market and the Nasdaq SmallCap Market will not affect the listing of the common shares on The Toronto Stock Exchange.

OUR COMMON SHARES MAY BECOMEARE SUBJECT TO “PENNY STOCK” REGULATIONS WHICH MAY AFFECT YOUR ABILITY TO BUY OR SELL OUR COMMON SHARES.

Our common shares have traded on the Nasdaq National and Small Cap Markets and on the OTCBB at prices below US$5.00 since April 2000 (on a pre-consolidation basis).  As a result, our shares may becomeare characterized as “penny stocks” which couldmay severely affect market liquidity.  The Securities Enforcement and Penny Stock Reform Act of 1990 requires additional disclosure relating to the market for penny stocks in connection with trades in any stock defined as a penny stock.

10



Securities and Exchange Commission regulations generally define a penny stock to be an equity security that has a market price of less than US$5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions.  Such exceptions include any equity security listed on Nasdaq or a national securities exchange and any equity security issued by an issuer that has:

                                          net tangible assets of at least US$2,000,000, if such issuer has been in continuous operation for three years;

                                          net tangible assets of at least US$5,000,000, if such issuer has been in continuous operation for less than three years; or

                                          average annual revenue of at least US$6,000,000, if such issuer has been in continuous operation for less than three years.

Unless an exception is available, theThe regulations require, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, delivery of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated therewith.  The penny stock regulations wouldmay adversely affect the market liquidity of our common shares by limiting the ability of broker/dealers to trade the shares and the ability of purchasers of our common shares to sell in the secondary market.  Certain institutions and investors will not invest in penny stocks.

THE MARKETS IN WHICH WE OPERATE ARE HIGHLY COMPETITIVE.

The market for asset lifecycle management solutions is rapidly evolving and intensely competitive.  We face significant competition in each segment of our business (sourcing, procurement, enterprise asset management and asset disposition).  We expect that competition will further intensify as new companies enter the different segments of our market and larger existing companies expand their product lines.  If the global economy continues to lag, we could face increased competition, particularly in the form of lower prices.

Many of our competitors have longer operating histories, larger customer bases, greater brand recognition and significantly greater financial, marketing and other resources than we.   We cannot assure you that we will be able to compete with them effectively. If we fail to do so, it would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.

CUSTOMER CONCENTRATION
Northcore maintains excellent working relationships with a number of key organizations such as GE Commercial Finance, Paramount Resources and Trilogy Energy Trust. If our business or contractual relationships with any these customers is severed or meaningfully altered, we would experience a significant decline in our performance, particularly through reduced revenues. In 2006, three customers accounted for 34 percent, 18 percent and 12 percent, respectively, (2005 - two customers accounted for 31 percent and 29 percent, respectively, 2004 - two customers accounted for 32 percent and 15 percent, respectively) of total revenues.  At December 31, 2006, one customer accounted for 64 percent of total accounts receivable.  At December 31, 2005, there were three customers that accounted for 27 percent, 24 percent and 21 percent, respectively, of total accounts receivable.

12


WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO RETAIN OR ATTRACT THE HIGHLY SKILLED PERSONNEL WE NEED.

Our success is substantially dependent on the ability and experience of our senior management and other key personnel.  We do not have long termlong-term employment agreements with any of our key personnel and maintain no “key person” life insurance policies.

In 2002, we implemented a workforce reduction.  We  experienced some attrition during 2003 as a result of the reduction.

We may need to hire new or additional personnel to respond to attrition or future growth of our business.  However, there is significant competition for qualified personnel. We cannot be certain we will be able to retain existing personnel or hire additional, qualified personnel when needed.

SIGNIFICANT DELAYS IN PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT WOULD HARM OUR REPUTATION AND RESULT IN LOSS OF REVENUE.


If we experience significant product development delays, our position in the market would be harmed, and our revenues could be substantially reduced, which would adversely affect our operating results.  As a result of the complexities inherent in our software, major new product enhancements and new products often require long development and test periods before they are released.  On occasion, we have experienced delays in the scheduled release date of new or enhanced products, and we may experience delays in the future.  Delays may occur for many reasons, including an inability to hire a sufficient number of developers, discovery of bugs and errors or a failure of our current or future products to conform to industry requirements.  Any such delay, or the failure of new products or enhancements in achieving market acceptance, could materially impact our business and reputation and result in a decrease in our revenues.

11



WE MAY HAVE TO EXPEND SIGNIFICANT RESOURCES TO KEEP PACE WITH RAPID TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE

CHANGE.

Our industry is characterized by rapid technological change, changes in user and customer requirements, frequent new service or product introductions embodying new technologies and the emergence of new industry standards and practices.  Any of these could hamper our ability to compete or render our proprietary technology obsolete.  Our future success will depend, in part, on our ability to:

develop new proprietary technology that addresses the increasingly sophisticated and varied needs of our existing and prospective customers;

anticipate and respond to technological advances and emerging industry standards and practices on a timely and cost-effective basis;

continually improve the performance, features and reliability of our products in response to evolving market demands; and

license leading technologies.

We may be required to make substantial expenditures to accomplish the foregoing or to modify or adapt our services or infrastructure.

OUR BUSINESS COULD BE SUBTANTIALLYSUBSTANTIALLY HARMED IF WE HAVE TO CORRECT OR DELAY THE RELEASE OF PRODUCTS DUE TO SOFTWARE BUGS OR ERRORS

ERRORS.

We sell complex software products.  Our software products may contain undetected errors or bugs when first introduced or as new versions are released.  Our software products may also contain undetected viruses.  Further, software we license from third parties and incorporate into our products may contain errors, bugs or viruses.  Errors, bugs and viruses may result in any of the following:

      adverse customer reactions;

      negative publicity regarding our business and our products;

      harm to our reputation;

      loss of or delay in market acceptance;


13


      loss of revenue or required product changes;

      diversion of development resources and increased development expenses;

      increased service and warranty costs;

      legal action by our customers; and

      increased insurance costs.

SYSTEMS DEFECTS, FAILURES OR BREACHES OF SECURITY COULD CAUSE A SIGNIFICANT DISRUPTION TO OUR BUSINESS, DAMAGE OUR REPUTATION AND EXPOSE US TO LIABILITY.

We host certain websites and sub-sites for our customers.  Our systems are vulnerable to a number of factors that may cause interruptions in our ability to enable or host solutions for third parties, including, among others:

damage from human error, tampering and vandalism;

12



breaches of security;

fire and power losses;

telecommunications failures and capacity limitations; and

software or hardware defects.


Despite the precautions we have taken and plan to take, the occurrence of any of these events or other unanticipated problems could result in service interruptions, which could damage our reputation, and subject us to loss of business and significant repair costs.  Certain of our contracts require that we pay penalties or permit a customer to terminate the contract if we are unable to maintain minimum performance levels.   Although we continue to take steps to enhance the security of our systems and ensure that appropriate back-up systems are in place, our systems are not now, nor will they ever be, fully secure.

OUR BUSINESS HAS UNDERGONE DRAMATIC EXPANSION AND RETRACTION PHASES SINCE OUR FORMATION.  WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO MANAGE FURTHER DRAMATIC EXPANSIONS AND RETRACTIONS IN THE FUTURE.

Our business has undergone dramatic expansion and retraction since our formation, which has placed significant strain on our management resources.  If we should grow or retract dramatically in the future, there may be further significant demands on our management, administrative, operating and financial resources.  In order to manage these demands effectively, we will need to expand and improve our operational, financial and management information systems and motivate, manage and retain employees.  We cannot assure you that we will be able to do so, that our management, personnel or systems will be adequate, or that we will be able to achieve levels of revenue commensurate with the resulting levels of operating expenses.

INTERNATIONAL

SALES TO CUSTOMERS OUTSIDE CANADA ACCOUNT FOR A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF OUR REVENUE, WHICH EXPOSES US TO CERTAIN RISKS.

We

While we currently operate inout of Canada Norway, Ireland, the United States and England.  In the 2003 fiscal year, sales to customers outside North America represented approximately 79%many of our revenues.customers are based outside of Canada. There are risks inherent in doing business on a global level,outside Canada, including:

ACQUISITIONS OF COMPANIES OR TECHNOLOGIES MAY RESULT IN DISRUPTIONS TO OUR BUSINESS AND/OR DISTRACTIONS FOR OUR MANAGEMENT.

We acquired ADB Systemer ASA of Norway in October 2001. 

In the future, we may seek to acquire other businesses or make investments in complementary businesses or technologies. We may not be able to acquire or

13



manage additional businesses profitably or successfully integrate any acquired businesses with our business.  Businesses that we acquire may have liabilities that we underestimate or do not discover during our pre-acquisition investigations.  Certain liabilities, even if we do not expressly assume them, may be imposed on us as the successor to the business.  Further, each acquisition may involve other special risks that could cause the acquired businesses to fail to meet our expectations.  For example:

the acquired businesses may not achieve expected results;

we may not be able to retain key personnel of the acquired businesses;

we may incur substantial, unanticipated costs, delays or other operational or financial problems when we try to integrate businesses we acquire with our own;

our management’s attention may be diverted; or

our management may not be able to manage the combined entity effectively or to make acquisitions and grow our business internally at the same time.


The occurrence of one or more of these factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.

In addition, we may incur debt or issue equity securities to pay for any future acquisitions or investments, which could dilute the ownership interest of our existing shareholders.

IF WE ARE UNABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY PROTECT OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OR OBTAIN CERTAIN LICENSES, OUR COMPETITIVE POSITION MAY BE WEAKENED.

Our performance and ability to compete are dependent in part on our technology.  We rely on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret laws as well as confidentiality agreements and technical measures, to establish and protect our rights in the technology we develop. We cannot guarantee that any patents issued to us will afford meaningful protection for our technology.  Competitors may develop similar technologies which do not conflict with our patents.  Others may challenge our patents and, as a result, our patents could be narrowed or invalidated.

Our software is protected by common law copyright laws, as opposed to registration under copyright statutes.  Common law protection may be narrower than that which we could obtain under registered copyrights.  As a result, we may experience difficulty in enforcing our copyrights against certain third parties.  The source code for our proprietary software is protected as a trade secret.  As part of our confidentiality protection procedures, we generally enter into agreements with our employees and consultants and limit access to, and distribution of, our software, documentation and other proprietary information.  We cannot assure you that the steps we take will prevent misappropriation of our technology or that agreements entered into for that purpose will be enforceable. In order to protect our intellectual property, it may be necessary for us to sue one or more third parties.  While this has not been necessary to date, there can be no guarantee that we will not be required to do so in the future to protect our rights. The laws of other countries may afford us little or no protection for our intellectual property.


We also rely on a variety of technology that we license from third parties, including our database and Internet server software, which is used to perform key functions.  These third partythird-party technology licenses may not continue to be available to us on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. If we are unable to maintain these licenses or obtain upgrades to these licenses, we could be delayed in completing or prevented from offering some products or services.


15


OTHERS COULD CLAIM THAT WE INFRINGE ON THEIR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS, WHICH MAY RESULT IN COSTLY AND TIME CONSUMINGTIME-CONSUMING LITIGATION.

Our success will also depend partly on our ability to operate without infringing upon the proprietary rights of others, as well as our ability to prevent others from infringing on our proprietary rights.  We may be required at times to take legal action in order to protect our proprietary rights.  Also, from time to time, we may receive notice from third parties claiming that we infringe their patent or other proprietary rights. In the past, a certain third party

14



has claimed that certain of our technology infringed their intellectual property rights.  The Company does not believe it does or ever has infringed the intellectual property rights whichof any third party.  The claim with the particular third party has been resolved through a licensing arrangement that remains in effect.arrangement.  There can be no assurances that other third parties will not make similar claims in the future.

We believe that infringement claims will increase in the electronic commercetechnology sector as competition intensifies.  Despite our best efforts, we may be sued for infringing on the patent or other proprietary rights of others.  Such litigation is costly, and even if we prevail, the cost of such litigation could harm us.  If we do not prevail or cannot fund a complete defense, in addition to any damages we might have to pay, we could be required to stop the infringing activity or obtain a license.  We cannot be certain that any required license would be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all.  If we fail to obtain a license, or if the terms of a license are burdensome to us, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.

OUR PRODUCT STRATEGY IS PARTIALLY DEPENDENT UPON THE CONTINUED ACCEPTANCE AND USE OF THE INTERNET AS A MEDIUM OF COMMERCE.

Our success depends in part on the continued growth of the Internet and reliance on and use of the Internet by businesses.  Because use of the Internet as a source of information, products and services is a relatively recent phenomenon, it is difficult to predict whether the number of users drawn to the Internet will continue to increase and whether the market for commercial use of the Internet will continue to develop and expand.

The Internet may not be commercially viable for a number of reasons, including potentially inadequate development of the necessary network infrastructure, delayed development of enabling technologies and inadequate performance improvements.  In addition, the Internet’s viability as a commercial marketplace could be adversely affected by delays in the development of services or due to increased government regulation.    Moreover, concern about the security of transactions conducted on the Internet and the privacy of users may also inhibit the growth of commerce on the Internet. If the use of the Internet does not continue to grow or grows more slowly than expected, or if the infrastructure for the Internet does not effectively support growth that may occur, our business would be materially and adversely affected.

OUR BUSINESS IS SENSITIVE TO THE OVERALL ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT. ANY SLOWDOWN IN INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SPENDING BUDGETS COULD HARM OUR OPERATING RESULTS

RESULTS.

Any significant downturn in our customers’customers' markets or in general economic conditions that results in reduced information technology spending budgets would likely result in a decreased demand for our products and services, longer selling cycles and lower prices, any of which may harm our business.

WE ARE SUBJECT TO RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH EXCHANGE RATE FLUCTUATIONS.

Substantially all of our revenues are

The Company’s revenue from software licensing and related services and e-commerce enabling agreements is transacted in Europeanvarious currencies or U.S. dollars, while the majority of our operating expenses are in Canadian dollars, Norwegian kroner and Euros.  We do not have any hedging programs in place to manage the potential exposure to fluctuations inincluding the Canadian dollar, Norwegian kroner or EuroU.S. dollar, UK pound and EURO. Correspondingly, operating expenses related to these activities are transacted in the above-denoted currencies.  The Company does not use derivative instruments to manage exposure to foreign exchange rates.fluctuations. Fluctuations in the exchange rates of these currencies or the exchange rate of other currencies against the Canadian dollar Norwegian kroner or Euro could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.

OUR PREFERENCEPREFERRED SHARES COULD PREVENT OR DELAY A TAKEOVER THAT SOME OR A MAJORITY OF SHAREHOLDERS CONSIDER FAVORABLE.

Our Board of Directors, without any further vote of our shareholders, may issue preference shares and determine the price, preferences, rights and restrictions of those shares.  The rights of the holders of common shares will be subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of any series of preferencepreferred shares that may be issued in the future.  That means, for example, that we can issue preferencepreferred shares with more voting rights, higher dividend payments or more favorable rights upon distribution than those for our common shares.  If we issue certain types of preferencepreferred shares in the future, it may also be more difficult for a third party to acquire a majority of

15



our outstanding voting shares and such issuance may, in certain circumstances, deter or delay mergers, tender offers or other possible transactions that may be favored by some or a majority of our shareholders.

IT MAY BE DIFFICULT FOR YOU TO ENFORCE LEGAL CLAIMS AGAINST US OR OUR OFFICERS OR DIRECTORS.


16


We are incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada.  Certain of our directors and officers are residents of Canada Norway and Ireland, and substantially all of our assets and the assets of such persons are located outside the United States.  As a result, it may be difficult for holders of common shares to effect service of legal process within the United States upon those directors and officers who are not residents of the United States.  It may also be difficult to realize in the United States upon judgments of courts of the United States without enforcing such judgments in our home jurisdiction or the jurisdiction of residence of the director or officer concerned.

MAJOR DEVELOPMENTS

Significant product and business developments over the last three fiscal years have been as follows:

Fiscal 2006

Northcore successfully completed a number of operational activities in 2006.  The most significant of which included the sale of our Norway business unit and renaming the Company to Northcore Technologies Inc., both of which received shareholder approval, and concentrating our sales and marketing efforts in North America.  These developments, underscore our strategic direction for 2007 and beyond.

Effective July 18, 2006 our stock symbol on the TSX was changed to NTI and our symbol on the Over The Counter Bulletin Board (the “OTCBB”) was changed to NTLNF.

In addition to our operational activities, Northcore devoted considerable effort in 2006 to adding new customers and building long-term relationships with existing clients, such as GE Commercial Finance, Paramount Resources and Trilogy Energy Trust.  These customers, who take advantage of Northcore’s suite of asset management software solutions, are also now able to leverage our technology-based services.

In 2006, Northcore continued to devote significant attention to the rollout of GE Asset Manager, LLC, and our joint venture effort with GE Commercial Finance.  Northcore’s joint venture efforts have generated a number of positive results to date.  Through the joint venture, Northcore has strengthened its relationship with GE, delivered new web-based asset management capabilities, expanded new relationships with customers such as Kraft Foods Inc., the Toro Company and Fastenal Company, and provided a basis for continued growth in the near and long-term.

Fiscal 2005

Throughout 2005, the Company expanded existing customer relationships while making efforts to add new customer organizations.  Cross selling of ancillary software and services within established customer relationships continued and the Company was able to expand its working relationship with National Health Service (UK), Paramount (Canada), and GE Commercial Finance, Capital Solutions (US), among others.  New customers included Mesta AS (Norway), Star Energy  (UK) and Trilogy (Canada).

In North America, the Company continued to focus on the expansion of activities related to GE’s Asset Manager, LLC, (GEAM) the joint venture co-owned by the Company and GE Capital Solutions.  Incrementally through the year, software was refined in order to expand GEAM’s array of offerings to its clients and sales efforts broadened to include the appraisal industry, a commercial segment vital to the valuation and financing of assets.  In this area, the joint venture successfully established a co-operation agreement with the North American Auctioneers Association (“NAA”) for the provision of appraisal services online.

The Company undertook a number of software development initiatives in 2005 to ensure continued technology leadership.  The most substantial single project involved the re-architecture of certain WorkMate and ProcureMate elements, which resulted in enhanced functionality for a number of customers.

Together, we have developed a suite of integrated web-based solutions to help our customers gain greater control of their capital assets and implement new process efficiencies to their operational activities.

The support of open systems allows integration with a large variety of existing commercial, proprietary and legacy applications.

  Other applications, which are also operational in a Microsoft NT environment, have been developed using Power Builder and are dependent on an Oracle relational database.

RESEARCHCUSTOMER SERVICE AND DEVELOPMENTTECHNOLOGY


Based on the relative pricing and functionality of our products as compared with those of competitors, we believe that our proprietary software provides a competitive advantage, and that our future success depends, in part, on our ability to continue developing and enhancing that software.  Therefore, we have focused our researchcustomer service and developmenttechnology  efforts on the continued development of our proprietary software offerings.  Presently, 12 of our staff members are dedicated to product development.

A.  OPERATING RESULTS

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On May 18, 2006, the Company entered into an agreement with ADB Systemer Holding AS (the “Buyer”), to sell 100 percent of the Company's interest in its Norwegian subsidiary ADB Systemer AS, (“ADB Systemer”) for NOK 15,000,000 or approximately Canadian $2,687,000 in cash, subject to shareholder approval.  As compensation for the transfer of UK contracts to the Buyer, the Company receives a royalty of 10% of net annual sales from the contracts for a period of four years from the sale closing date.  These royalties are recognized in earnings as receivable.  The Company received a total of $77,000 in royalties from the period of discontinued operations to the year end.  Certain shareholders of the Buyer were employees or executive officers of ADB Systemer and shareholders of the Company.  On June 21, 2006 the Company received approval from shareholders at its annual general meeting to proceed with the sale of ADB Systemer and change its name to Northcore Technologies Inc. effective June 30, 2006.  The sale of the shares of ADB Systemer included the sale of the ADB Systems name.  Upon the sale of ADB Systemer, the Company retained access to all existing technology that will be used to service existing customers and entered into a Value Added Reseller Agreement with ADB Systemer.

The consolidated financial statements and related note disclosures for 2005 and 2004 have been restated to reflect the impact of the discontinued operations.

Since 2001 when ADB Systemer was acquired, it was expected that ADB Systemer would complement our technology portfolio enabling us to offer customers full lifecycle asset optimization capability.  Additionally, we expected ADB Systemer to be a steady performer, generating moderate profits and growth while other areas of ADB business, with larger growth and profit potential, were being developed.

33



Over the past two years it had been expected that North American lifecycle asset management software licensing and the joint venture with GE would begin to grow, both strategically and financially.  Although financial results were slower than anticipated, on the strategic front, there is little doubt that GE based relationships formed in 2004 and 2005 were essential foundations for increased levels of deal flow and strategic activity early in 2006.

Management believes that this heightened level activity through our GE joint venture and emerging opportunities in the North American government and oil and gas sectors will continue beyond 2006.

Following the sale of ADB Systemer, the Company continues to develop its activities in the oil and gas industry in Western Canada, building on successful relationships with Paramount and Trilogy within the broader context of this sector’s strong economic growth.  Both customers have recently upgraded their software licenses or expanded their use of our enterprise asset management applications.  As noted, we continue to have access to ADB Systemer’s software through long-term agreements.  New opportunities have also emerged for the Company in the North American government sectors.

In addition to our concentration on the oil and gas and government sectors, we expect to benefit from an increased focus on GE’s Asset Manager, the joint venture we established with GE in 2004.  Many client relationships and strategic developments related to the joint venture have now progressed to the stage where we feel that by devoting further management attention to these opportunities we will see greater growth and profit potential than would be the case if we had retained ownership of the Norway business.

Moreover, the Company has also seen an increased demand for its technology-based services.  These services, which include application development, software customization, systems integration and training, provide revenue growth opportunities while allowing Northcore to expand our relationships with key customers.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Comparison of Years Ended December 31, 20032006 and December 31, 20022005


Net Income (Loss).Loss.  Our net loss for the year ended December 31, 20032006 was $2.815 million, an improvement$648,000, a decrease of 69.981 percent overfrom the net loss of $9.364$3.501 million reported for the year ended December 31, 2002.  Excluding items outside2005.   The improvement in net loss was attributed to the gain realized on the sale of the normal course ofNorway business unit.

This decrease in EBITDA was the result of a $1.072 million decrease in the associated expenses (general and administrative, customer service and technology and sales and marketing) from $3.903 million in 2002, an improvement2005 to $2.831 million in 2006, partially offset by the decrease of 45.0 percent.$212,000 in revenue, from $1.285 million in 2005 to $1.073 million in 2006.  The improvementreduction in expenses of more than $4.0 million was achieved27 percent in 20032006 when compared to 20022005 was achieved in the areas of general and administrative of $1.6 million,expenses by $769,000, customer service and technology expenses by $175,000 and sales and marketing of $777,000, software development and technology of $1.3 million and $700,000 in depreciation and amortization.  In addition, during 2003 the Company recorded a realized gain on the settlement of a demand loan of $2.2 million.

Comparison of Years Ended December 31, 20022005 and December 31, 20012004


Acquisition of ADB Systemer ASA. On October 11, 2001, we acquired substantially all of the shares of ADB Systemer, a Norway-based provider of enterprise asset management and electronic procurement software.

The acquisition of ADB Systemer resulted in a significant broadening of our product offerings, customer base, and ability to penetrate new markets. The cost of the acquisition was $13.762 million, including a $2.293 million cash outlay. Approximately 93 percent of the purchase price was attributed to software and related intellectual property and goodwill, valued at $3.383 million and $9.476 million respectively.

In 2001, the acquisition contributed $818,000 in revenue and improved expense control through the integration and restructuring of worldwide operations.

With the adoption of new standards in accounting for business combinations and goodwill, we were required to test the fair value of the goodwill against its carrying value. It was determined that a goodwill impairment of $9.476 million be recorded. This impairment charge represented a non-cash expense. No future goodwill amortization expense will be required to be recorded.

Net Income (Loss). Loss.Our net loss for the year ended December 31, 20022005 was $9.364$3.501 million, an improvementa decrease of 50.031 percent overfrom the net loss of $18.714$5.104 million reported for the year ended December 31, 2001. Excluding items outside of the normal course of2004.


The loss before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, employee stock options and discontinued operations our loss(“EBITDA”) was $9.241$2.618 million for 2005 as compared to $12.185$2.980 million for 2004, a decrease of $362,000 or 12 percent.  The Company considers EBITDA to be a meaningful performance measure as it provides an approximation of operating cash flows.  This decrease in EBITDA was the result of a $555,000 decrease in the associated expenses (general and administrative, customer service and technology and sales and marketing) from $4.458 million in 2001, an improvement2004 to $3.902 million in 2005, partially offset by the decrease of 24.2 percent.

$193,000 in revenue, from $1.478 million in 2004 to $1.285 million in 2005.  The 2002 year represented our first full yearreduction in expenses of operations as ADB Systems International Ltd.  Expenses for the combined entity for 2002 were substantially lower12 percent in 2005 when compared to 2001 due to synergies2004 was achieved as a resultin the areas of the acquisition of ADB Systemer in Norway along with significant cost reduction that remained in effect since implementation in 2001.  In addition, the inclusion of the first full year of revenues generated from our acquisition of ADB Systemer in Norway resulted in increased revenue in 2002 when compared to 2001.

As compared to 2001, we experienced a net savings of $2.165 million in sales and marketing costs and $1.334 million in general and administrative expenses primarily due to the impact of cost reductions for the full year that were implemented in 2001.

As mentioned, the increase  This decline was attributable to reduced revenue in revenue is primarily due to the inclusion of the first full year of revenue generated from our acquisition of ADB Systemer in Norway.  Revenues generated in Norway for 2002 accounted for $3.126 million compared to $741,000 in 2001. Revenue declined in both North America of $140,000 and reduced revenue in Ireland and UK during 2002 compared to 2001 as these existing businesses refocused their marketing efforts on the new product offerings made available by the acquisition of ADB Systemer.

As indicated previously,


Year-over-year savings in the organization-wide restructuring plan implemented during the 2001 yearamount of $141,000 resulted from salary expense reductions arising from a smaller administrative workforce and favorable Canadian dollar exchange rates pertaining to US dollar-denominated salaries.  Continued cost containment efforts resulted in substantial reductions that were maintained throughout the entire 2002 year. Savings resulting from the$38,000 savings in travel expenses, savings in investor relations of $84,000 and a reduction in our workforce totaled $860,000. Cost containment effortsconnectivity and greater reliance on internal staff resulted in $437,000 savings in professional fees. Rent and occupanciesoccupancy costs were also reduced by $136,000 as offices were closed inof $241,000 largely due to the U.S.relocation of the North American head office and the U.K.

Employee Stock Options.  Effective January 1, 2003, the Company adopted the accounting recommendations contained in the CICA handbook Section 3870 - “Stock-based Compensation and Other Stock-based Compensation Payments”.  As a result, the Company recorded an increaseemployee stock option expense of 11.1 percent. The increase in software development expenses was largely attributable to the acquisition of ADB Systemer ASA in 2001.  A large portion of the Norwegian subsidiary’s expenses related to software development and technology even after staff reductions and budget cuts were implemented.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense was $2.602 million$105,000 for the year ended December 31, 2002 as compared to $1.572 million2005 and $27,000 for the year ended December 31, 2001,2004, an increase of 65.5289 percent.  ThisThe increase in employee stock option expense was primarily due to the continued depreciationvesting of certainstock options that were granted in early 2005.  No employee stock options were granted in 2004.  The 2004 expense arises from the vesting of stock options that were granted in 2003.   No stock compensation expense is recognized for employee grants made before January 1, 2003.


Depreciation and Amortization.  Depreciation and amortization expense was $105,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005 as compared to $149,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004, a decrease of 30 percent.  This decrease reflects software acquired as a resultin the acquisition of ADB Systemer, which was fully amortized by the end of the ADB Systemer acquisition.

Interest income was $45,000negligible for both years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004.


Other Income.  During the year ended December 31, 2002, as compared to $345,000 for the year ended December 31, 2001, a decline of 87.0 percent. This decline was largely attributable to lower cash deposits and money market funds on hand throughout 2002.

Realized Gains and Losses on Disposal of Marketable Securities, Strategic Investments and Capital Assets, and Recovery of Assets. Realized losses on disposal of marketable securities and strategic investments amounted to $85,000 for the year ended December 31, 2002, compared to a gain of $6.722 million for the year ended December 31, 2001. These losses are outside of the normal course of operations but are not considered extraordinary items.

Realized gains generated in 2001 resulted from the disposal of equity interest in Point2 Internet Systems Inc. and disposal of most of our shares in America Online Inc. (AOL). During 2002,2005, the Company disposed of its remaining shares in AOL resulting inreceived a realized loss of $143,000. Realized gains in 2002 included $41,000$42,000 refund from a U.S.-based credit card institution formally engaged by the sale of strategic investments in SCS Solars and MegaWheels and $23,000 from the sale of capital assets.

Unrealized Gains and Losses on Revaluation of Marketable Securities and Strategic Investments, and Provision for Impairment of Assets. Unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities and strategic investments, and provisions for impairment of assets are the result of an assessment by management as to the recoverability of the value of certain assets and are not realized losses. Unrealized gains and losses are outside the normal course of operations but are not considered extraordinary.

Unrealized losses for the year ended December 31, 2002 were $24,000 , compared to a loss of $2.435 million for the year ended December 31, 2001. We conduct an assessment of our strategic investment portfolio at the end of each fiscal period by analyzing the financial performance of the companies we invested in as well as general market conditions. In 2002, we recorded impairment provisions totaling approximately $24,000 compared to $1.510 million 2001. As our investments are all in companies in the technology sector, the market performance of these holdings has been dramatically affected by economic conditions.

Goodwill Impairment. Goodwill impairment in 2002 was $14,000 compared to $9.476 million in 2001. The goodwill impairment recorded in 2001 was a result of our acquisition of ADB Systemer for a total consideration of $13.762 million. Of this amount, we attributed $9.476 million to goodwill. With the adoption of new accounting standards for business combinations and goodwill, we were required to test the fair value of the goodwill against its carrying value. It was determined that a goodwill impairment loss of $9.476 million be recorded. This impairment charge is a non-cash expense, and no future goodwill amortization expense will be recorded relating to this transaction.

The goodwill impairment recorded in 2002 relates to a change in goodwill arising on purchase of shares from minority interests during the year.

Restructuring Charges. In April and September, 2001 we implemented cost-reduction measures intended to ensure future viability. The $959,000 in restructuring charges for 2001 relate to these staff reductions and associated measures. As there was no formal restructuring announcement in 2002, these charges were minimal and therefore included in general and administrative expenses.

Retail Activities Settlement. The Company ceasedwhen it operated its on-line retail activities in October 2000, however,the U.S.  No similar refunds were received in 2001 it was required to settle certain amounts payable relating to product sales of previous years. These amounts, which totaled $381,000, were not previously anticipated and did not reoccur in 2002.

The Company’s non-consolidated subsidiary, Bid.Com Ltd., recommenced on-line retail activities in 2002.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

Critical Accounting Policies. The accounting policies followed by the Company have a critical effect on the financial reporting of the Company. These policies involve complex judgments and estimates which affect the amount of revenue recognized, the recognition and amortization of assets and liabilities and the recoverability of assets. The valuation and recoverability of assets is generally based on the projected cash flows from these assets. These significant accounting policies are discussed in Notes 2, 3 and 20 of the financial statements. The Company does not have any off-balance sheet special purpose entities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity.  The Company has been funded to date primarily through a series of private placements of equity and convertible debentures, sales of equity to and investments from strategic partners, gains from investments and option exercises.  Since inception, the Company has received aggregate net proceeds of $84.2 million from debt and equity financing and has realized $23.7 million in gains on investment disposals.

Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities decreased by $912,000 to $445,000 as at December 31, 2003 from $1.357 million as at December 31, 2002.

i) Operating:

Cash outflows from operating activities were $3.4 million in the current fiscal year compared to cash outflows from operating activities of $6.4 million in the prior year.  The primary factor in the reduction was the decrease in expenses related to general and administrative, sales and marketing and software development and technology from the prior year.

Non-cash working capital resulted in outflows of $728,000 in fiscal 2003 versus cash inflows of $61,000 in the prior year, a decrease of $789,000, as summarized in the following table:

During 2002, the Company incurred $1,024,000 of costs associated with obtaining a demand loan and convertible debenture, which were recorded to deferred financing charges.  The deferred financing charges were fully amortized by June 30, 2003 on a straight-line basis to coincide with the maturing of the demand loan.  No additional deferred charges were incurred in 2003.

Funding

Funding - Overview.  The Company has been funded to date primarily through a series of private placements of equity and convertible debentures, sales of equity to and investments from strategic partners, gains from investments and option exercises.  Since inception, the Company has received aggregate net proceeds of $84.2 million from debt and equity financing and has realized $23.7 million in gains on investment disposals.

Funding - 2003.  During the period from January 1 to June 26, 2003, the Company issued 4,879,000 common shares at a price of $0.24 per share and 2,733,000 common share-purchase warrants exercisable into one common share at $0.40 for net proceeds of $1.148 million.  The warrants expire on June 26, 2005.  Included in this private placement were 2,146,000 shares issued to a director and officer of the Company for total net proceeds of $505,000.  None of the 2,733,000 warrants had been converted into common shares at December 31, 2003.

32



On August 19, 2003 the Company issued Series E secured subordinated notes with a face value of $1.0 million for net proceeds of $994,000.  The Series E notes have an annual rate of interest of 11 percent that is paid quarterly in arrears, mature in August 2006 and are convertible into equity units at a price of $0.35 per unit.  Each equity unit consists of one common share and one half of a share-purchase warrant with an exercise price of $0.50.  The Series E secured subordinated notes will automatically convert into units when the share price of the Company closes above $0.70 for five consecutive trading days during the term.  The holders of this Series E may convert at anytime following a four-month hold period.  If the holder does not convert and no automatic conversion takes place, the Company must repay the principle amount to the holders of the Series E secured subordinated notes in cash.  As part of this private placement, the Company issued 30,000 common share-purchase warrants to an associate of Stonestreet Limited Partnership (“Stonestreet”) in consideration for professional fees.  Each such warrant entitles the holder to purchase one common share of the Company for $0.50 at any time up to and including August 18, 2006.  The Series E notes were issued to private investors including an amount totaling $100,000 issued to directors and/or senior officers of the Company.

Funding – 2002.  On April 25, 2002, the Company entered into an agreement with Stonestreet for a $1.1 million private placement.  The Company issued 3.3 million common shares at US $0.21 per share and warrants exercisable into 1 million common shares at US $0.35 per share.  The warrants were exercised on December 17, 2002, providing an additional $550,000 in gross proceeds to the Company.

On August 30, 2002, the Company entered into a private placement agreement of secured subordinated notes (Series A, B and D notes) with Stonestreet and a group of private investors for total gross proceeds of  $1 million.

Pursuant to the agreement with Stonestreet dated April 25, 2002, on August 30, 2002, the Company also issued a $120,000 secured subordinated note (Series C note) in exchange for the waiver of certain US registration rights granted to Stonestreet.

On August 30, 2002, ADB entered into a series of agreements with a lender, an unrelated party, whereby the lender granted to ADB and ADB Systems International Inc. (“Old ADB”) a secured loan in the aggregate principal amount of $2,000,000 and bearing interest at the rate of 12 percent per annum.  As part of this transaction, ADB and Old ADB implemented the Arrangement  (as defined below).

ADB Systems International Ltd. was created on August 30, 2002.  Upon implementation of a plan of arrangement approved by the shareholders of ADB on October 22, 2002 and approved by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice effective October 31, 2002 (the Arrangement), the shareholders of ADB exchanged their shares for shares of the Company on a one-for-one basis.  All assets and liabilities of ADB, other than those related to its retail activities, were transferred to the Company as of that date in the form of a return of capital.  Old ADB subsequently changed its name to Bid.com International Ltd. (“Bid.Com Ltd.”)

The Company and the lender entered into an arrangement whereby online retail operations utilizing the online retail technology, experience and expertise of ADB developed and operated under the name “Bid.Com International Inc.” in the on-line selling of consumer products to be supplied by the lender would be conducted by Bid.Com Ltd.  The loan matured on June 30, 2003 or upon earlier demand and the Company had the right after the earlier of June 1, 2003 and demand for payment to repay the loan in cash or to transfer to the lender 100 percent of the issued shared of Bid.Com Ltd. acquired by the Company as a consequence of the Arrangement for proceeds equal to the outstanding principal amount and accrued interest then owing to the lender.  The obligations of the Company and Bid.Com Ltd. were secured by a general security agreement delivered by the Company to the lender and a pledge of the shares of the Company’s Norwegian subsidiary.

On December 31, 2002 the Company owned 100 percent of the issued and outstanding shares of Bid.Com Ltd., but had determined that, for accounting purposes, consolidation of Bid.Com Ltd. was not appropriate.  This determination was based upon the Company’s evaluation of its continuing ability to determine the strategic operating policies of Bid.Com Ltd. without the cooperation of others, its ability to obtain future economic benefits from the resources of Bid.Com Ltd., and its exposure to the related risks of ownership.  Therefore, the Company accounted for its investment in Bid.Com Ltd. on the equity basis.  On October 22, 2002, after obtaining shareholder approval, the above-noted debt instruments became convertible into units at $0.12 per unit at the option of the holder.  Each Series A, B, and D unit consists of one common share and one-half common share purchase warrant.  Series C notes also

33



became convertible into common shares at a conversion price of $0.12 per share at the option of the holder or at the option of the Company.  Upon conversion, the Company will issue 9.333 million common shares for no additional consideration and 4.167 million warrants exercisable into an equal number of common shares at $0.14 per share.

On June 30, 2003, the Company exercised its put option to transfer 100 percent of the issued shares of Bid.Com Ltd. in full settlement of the outstanding principal and accrued interest owed to the lender.

Funding – 2001.  During 2001, the Company continued to liquidate its AOL position to fund operations.  In addition, the Company disposed of its equity position in Point2 for $2.6 million and recovered an $811,000 receivable from Point2 that had been provided for in 2000.

In October 2001, with the acquisition of ADB Systemer, the Company paid $2.293 million in cash to the shareholders of ADB Systemer in connection with the acquisition.  As a result of that acquisition, cash of  $814,000 held by ADB Systemer was acquired.

Trending Into Fiscal 2004

The Company has not earned profits to date and, at December 31, 2003, has an accumulated deficit of $99.762 million.  The Company expects to incur losses in 2004 and there can be no assurance that it will ever achieve profitability.  Operating results have varied on a quarterly basis in the past and may fluctuate significantly in the future as a result of a variety of factors, many of which are outside of the Company’s control.

The Company has incurred negative annual cash flows from operations since inception and expects to continue to expend substantial funds to continue to develop technology, build an infrastructure to support business development efforts and expand other areas of business including the acquisition of, or strategic investments in, complementary products, businesses or technologies.  Although the Company achieved positive cash flows from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2004, we estimate that additional working capital in the amount of $3.7 millionThe Company’s ability to continue as a going concern will be required for 2004.dependent on management’s ability to successfully execute its business plan including a substantial increase in revenue as well as maintaining operating expenses at or near the same level as 2006.  Management’s 2007 business plan includes a significant increase in revenue and operating cash flow primarily from major new contracts in North America.  The Company expectsrevenue contained in management’s business plan is based on detailed estimates of revenue on a customer-by-customer basis.  Management does not anticipate a material increase in 2007 expenses over those incurred in 2006, in order to obtainattain the 2007 revenue goals.  Additionally, management believes that it has the ability to raise additional working capital through additional debt or equity financings such as issuance of loans or debentures, issuance of shares, conversion of warrants and exercise options.  However, thefinancing if required.  The Company cannot provide assurance that it will be able to execute on its business plan or assure that efforts to raise such additional financings would be successful.


The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles applicable to a going concern.  If the going concern assumption were not appropriate, adjustments would be necessary in the carrying value of assets and liabilities, the reported net losses and the balance sheet classification used.

Management believes that continued existence beyond 2006 is dependent on its ability to increase revenue from existing products, and to expand the scope of its product offering which entails a combination of internally developed software and partnerships with third parties.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting years.  Estimates are used when determining items such as the allowance for doubtful accounts, the fair value assigned to the debt and equity components of the secured subordinated notes and the expected requirements for non-operational funding in 2007.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.


CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

We periodically review our financial reporting and disclosure practices and accounting policies to ensure that they provide accurate and transparent information relative to the current economic and business environment. As part of this process, we have reviewed our selection, application and communication of critical accounting policies and financial disclosures. We have determined that the critical accounting policies related to our core ongoing business activities are primarily those that relate to revenue recognition. Other significant accounting policies are described in Note 3 to our audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2006.


REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company’s revenues are derived from software license fees, implementation, training and consulting services, product maintenance and customer support, software development, and hosting fees. Fees for services are billed separately from licenses of the Company’s product.  The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Canadian GAAP, which in the Company’s circumstances, is not materially different from the amounts that would be determined under provisions of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statements of Position (SOP) No. 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition”, and as amended by Statement of Position 98-9, “Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions”. The Company also considers the provisions of The Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (“CICA”) EIC 141, which is analogous to Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 104, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements”, and CICA EIC 142, which is analogous to the Emerging Issues Task Force consensus on EITF 00-21, “Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Elements,” in determining the appropriate revenue recognition methodology.

Hosting Fees
The Company earns revenue from the hosting of customer websites.  Under existing hosting contracts, the Company charge customers a recurring periodic flat fee.  The fees are recognized as the hosting services are provided.

Software Development Fees
Typically, development of software for our customers is provided based on a predetermined fixed rate basis.  Revenue is recognized as time is incurred throughout the development process.

Software License Revenue
The Company recognizes software license revenue in accordance with the terms of the license agreement and when the following criteria as set out in SOP No. 97-2 are met:
•      Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;
•      Delivery has occurred;
•      Fee is fixed or determinable; and
•      Collectibility is probable.
Software license revenue consists of fixed license fee agreements involving perpetual licenses.


38


Software license agreements may be part of multiple element arrangements that include consulting and implementation services.  When these services are considered essential to the functionality of the license, the associated revenue is recognized on the basis of the percentage of completion method as specified by contract accounting principles.  When these services are not considered essential to the functionality of the license, the entire arrangement fee is allocated to each element in the arrangement based on the respective vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of the fair value of each element.  The amount allocated to license revenues is based on the price charged by the Company when the same element is sold in similar quantities to a customer of a similar size and nature.  If this amount is not determinable, the residual software license revenue is the amount of the total arrangement fee less the fair value of any undelivered elements.  VSOE used in determining fair value for installation, implementation and training based on the standard daily rates for the type of service being provided multiplied by the estimated time to complete each task.  VSOE used in determining the fair value of maintenance and support is based on the annual renewal rates.  The revenue allocable to the software license is recognized when the revenue recognition criteria are met.  The revenue allocable to the consulting services is recognized as the services are performed.

Implementation, Training and Consulting Service Fees
The Company receives revenue from implementation of its product offerings, consulting services and training services.  Customers are charged a fee based on time and expenses.  Revenue from implementation, consulting service and training fees is recognized as the services are performed or deferred until contractually defined milestones are achieved or until customer acceptance has occurred, as the case may be, for such contracts.

Product Maintenance and Customer Support Fees
The Company receives revenue from maintaining its products and the provision of on-going support services to customers.  The maintenance and support fees are typically equal to a specified percentage of the customers’ license fee.  If associated with the fixed fee license model, the maintenance revenues received are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized on a straight-line basis over the contract period.

Services revenue from maintenance and support is recognized when the services are performed.  Maintenance and support revenues paid in advance are non-refundable and are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the agreement, which typically is 12 months.

Deferred Revenue
Deferred revenue is comprised of the unrecognized portion of consulting and implementation fees received from maintenance and support e-commerce enabling agreements, and the unrecognized portion of license, installation, and consulting revenue on the sale of software licenses and related services.

Deferred Charges
Deferred charges are comprised of expenditures incurred in the issuance of secured subordinated notes.  The deferred charges are amortized over the term of the underlying notes on a straight-line basis.  In accordance with Canadian GAAP, conversion of the underlying notes results in the allocation of the associated unamortized deferred charge to shareholders’ deficiency.  Under U.S. GAAP, note conversion results in the expensing of the associated unamortized deferred charge.  The impact of this difference in Canadian GAAP from U.S. GAAP is disclosed in these notes to the consolidated financial statements under Canadian and United States accounting policy differences (See Note 20).

Secured Subordinated Notes
Financial instruments that contain both a liability and an equity element are required to have the instrument’s component parts classified separately under Canadian GAAP.  The Company uses the Cox-Rubinstein binomial valuation model to determine the fair value of the conversion feature at the issue dates of convertible secured subordinated notes and discloses the liability and equity components separately on its balance sheet.  U.S. GAAP does not permit separate disclosure of different elements of a financial instrument in the financial statements.  The impact of this difference in U.S. GAAP from Canadian GAAP is disclosed in the notes to these consolidated financial statements under Canadian and United States accounting policy differences (See Note 20).

Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation based on the fair value method of accounting, which is consistent with CICA 3870, “Stock-based Compensation and Other-based Payments.”  The estimated fair value is amortized to expense over the vesting period.  Performance based options are expensed upon achievement of specific criteria.


39


Stock-based compensation to third parties is recognized and recorded in the accounts of the Company at the fair market value of the equity instrument as determined by the Cox-Rubinstein binomial valuation model.

Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the asset and liability method.  The determination of future tax assets and liabilities is based on differences between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities, using substantively enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.  Future tax assets are recorded to recognize tax benefits only to the extent that, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that they will be successful.  realized.

Use of Significant Accounting Estimates
The actual amountpreparation of fundsconsolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting years.  Estimates are used when determining items such as the allowance for doubtful accounts, the fair value assigned to the debt and equity components of the secured subordinated notes and the expected requirements for non-operational funding in 2007.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Impact of New Accounting Pronouncements:

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), "Share-Based Payment".  SFAS No. 123(R) requires employee stock options and rights to purchase shares under stock participation plans to be accounted for under the fair value method, and eliminates the ability to account for these instruments under the intrinsic value method prescribed by APB Opinion No. 25, as allowed under the original provisions of SFAS No. 123.  SFAS No. 123(R) requires the use of an option pricing model for estimating fair value, which is amortized to expense over the service periods.  The requirements of SFAS No. 123(R) are effective for the first fiscal year beginning after June 15, 2005. SFAS No. 123(R) allows for either prospective recognition of compensation expense or retrospective recognition, which may be back to the original issuance of SFAS No. 123.  The above standard did not have a significant impact on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2006.

In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an Interpretation of SFAS 109.  This interpretation prescribes the measurement and recognition criteria of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.  This interpretation is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2007.  The Company is currently assessing the impact of this standard.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurements.  This new standard defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  This new standard is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2008.  The Company is currently assessing the impact of this standard.

In 2006 the Company adopted Staff Accounting Bulleting No. 108, "Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements" ("SAB 108").  SAB 108 clarifies the way that a company should evaluate identified unadjusted errors for materiality.  SAB 108 requires that the effect of misstatements that were not corrected at the end of the prior year be considered in quantifying misstatements in the current year financial statements.  Two techniques were identified as being used by companies in practice to accumulate and quantify misstatements - the "rollover" approach and the "iron curtain" approach.  The above standard did not have a significant impact on the financial position, results of operations, or cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2006.

Capital Disclosures
In 2006, the CICA issued Handbook Section 1535, Capital Disclosures (“CICA 1535”).  CICA 1535 requires that an entity disclose information that enables users of its financial statements to evaluate an entity’s objectives, policies and processes for managing capital including disclosures of any externally imposed capital requirements and the consequences for non-compliance.  The new standard will be determined byeffective for the Company effective January 1, 2008.

Directors.


During 2003,2006, we did not provide any pension, retirement or similar benefits to our directors and officers as a group.  Our employees based in Ireland and the United Kingdom participate in a retirement savings arrangement where employee contributions to personal retirement savings accounts are matched by the Company to a maximum

38



of six percent of salary.  This arrangement does not represent a future pension obligation to the Company.  Mr. Rowsome participates in this plan.

Jeff Lymburner has entered into a non-competition and salary protection agreement with our company, dated February 21, 1997, which provides, among other things, that he (i) will not compete with our company for a period of 12 months, which may be extended by us to 24 months, following the termination of his employment with our company, in consideration of which we will pay his full annual salary during such period; and (ii) if his employment with us is terminated other than by reason of death, disability or cause (as such terms are defined in such agreements), we will continue to pay his full annual salary for 12 months (or 24 months if we exercise our option to extend the non-competition restrictions for 24 months) following the date of termination.

Jan Pedersen entered into a new employment agreement with our company in 2003 which sets out his salary and benefits as the Company’s President of Norwegian operations, as described in Item 6. The new agreement does not provide for termination payments or retention bonuses.

C.           BOARD PRACTICES

Our articles of incorporation currently provide for a Board of Directors consisting of not less than 3 and not more than 15 directors, to be elected annually. The Ontario Business Corporations Act (Ontario) provides that, where a minimum and maximum number of directors is provided for in the articles of a company, the directors of that company may, if empowered by special resolution of the shareholders, by a resolution determine the number of directors to be elected at each annual meeting of the shareholders. Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix the number of directors to a number within the minimum and maximum number of directors as set forth in the articles, and has determined by resolution that the size of the Board is 76 directors.

On September 7, 2001, we entered into an agreement (the “Board Representation Agreement”) with LimeRock Partners LLC (“LR”), Jan Pedersen (“Pedersen”), and Sandnes Investering, Rogaland Investering, AIG Private Bank Ltd. and Karstein Gjersvik (together, the “Other Nominating Shareholders”) in connection with the acquisition of ADB Systemer ASA of Sola, Norway.  LR, Pedersen and the Other Nominating Shareholders were the largest shareholders of ADB Systemer.

Pursuant to the Board Representation Agreement, LR and Pedersen were entitled, immediately following the acquisition of ADB Systemer, to nominate one person each to our Board of Directors.  Also pursuant to the Board Representation Agreement, the Other Nominating Shareholders as a group were entitled to nominate one person to our Board of Directors effective at our 2002 annual shareholders meeting on June 12, 2002.

The Board representation rights conferred on LR, Pedersen and the Other Nominating Shareholders are subject to their continued ownership of at least 50% of the shares received by them upon the acquisition of ADB Systemer.  These rights are also subject to the satisfaction of Canadian residency and other regulatory issues.

LR has sold all of its shareholdings in ADB and, therefore, pursuant to the Board Representation Agreement, no longer has a right to nominate a person to the Board of Directors.


Our Board of Directors presently consists of 76 directors. Under Canadian law, a majority of our Board of directors and of each of our Board Committees must be residents of Canada, subject to certain exceptions.  Each of our directors holds office until the next annual meeting of shareholders, until his successor has been elected and qualified, or his earlier resignation or removal.  Our executive officers are appointed by our Board of directors and serve at the discretion of our Board of Directors.

39




Except for Jeff Lymburner’sJeffrey Lymburner's salary protection agreements, no director has any contract or arrangement with us entitling them to benefits upon termination of their directorship.


The three committees of the Board are the Audit Committee, Management Resources and Compensation Committee, and the Corporate Governance Committee.


The Audit Committee, all of whose members are unrelated as defined by the TSX Corporate Governance Guidelines and Independent as defined by Nasdaq listing standards, meets with our management and our auditors on a periodic basis, before the release of quarterly results and before submission of our annual financial statements to the Board. The committee is responsible for the review and assessment of our audit practices, financial reporting and internal controls, inquiry of the auditors as to cooperation in access and disclosure by our management and the ultimate approval of our annual financial statements for submission to the Board and to the shareholders.

The holders of the common shares of our companyCompany are entitled to receive notice of and to attend all meetings of the shareholders of our companyCompany and have one vote for each common share held at all meetings of the shareholders of our company,Company, except for meetings at which only holders of another specified class or series of shares of our companyCompany are entitled to vote separately as a class or series.

Preference Shares


Our articles of incorporation authorize the issuance of an unlimited number of preference shares, in one or more series. The Ontario Business Corporations Act does not impose restrictions upon our Board of Directors issuing preference shares of the type authorized by our articles of incorporation. Our Board of Directors may fix, before issuing, the number of preference shares of each series, the designation, rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions attaching to the preference shares of each series, including any voting rights, any right to receive dividends (which may be cumulative or non-cumulative and variable or fixed) or the means of determining the dividends, the dates of payment, any terms and conditions of redemption or purchase, any conversion rights, and any rights on the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of our company,Company, any sinking fund or other provisions, the whole to be subject to the issue of a Certificate of Amendment setting forth the designation, rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions attaching to the preference shares of the series.

The preference shares of one series shall participate ratably with the preference shares of every other series in respect of all dividends and similar amounts.  The holders of our preference shares are not liable to further capital calls by our company.Company.  None of our preference shares are currently issued or outstanding.


Action Necessary to Change the Rights of Shareholders


In order to change the rights of our shareholders, we would need to amend our articles of incorporation to effect the change.  Such an amendment would require the approval of holders of two-thirds of the shares cast at a duly called special meeting. If we wish to amend the rights of holders of a specific class of shares, such approval would also be required from the holders of that class. A shareholder is entitled to dissent in respect of such a resolution and, if the resolution is adopted and our companyCompany implements such changes, demand payment of the fair value of its shares.


Meetings of Shareholders


An annual meeting of shareholders is held each year for the purpose of considering the financial statements and reports, electing directors, appointing auditors and for the transaction of other business as may be brought before the meeting. The President, the Chairman of the Board or the Board of Directors has the power to call a special meeting of shareholders at any time. Notice of the time and place of each meeting of shareholders must be given not less than 21 days, nor more than 50 days, before the date of each meeting to each director, to the auditor and to each shareholder who at the close of business on the record date for notice is entered in the securities register as the holder of one or more shares carrying the right to vote at the meeting. Notice of a meeting of shareholders called for any other purpose other than consideration of financial statements and auditors’ report, election of directors and reappointment of the incumbent auditor, must state the nature of the business in sufficient detail to permit the shareholder to form a reasoned judgment on, and must state the text of, any special resolution or by-law to be submitted to the meeting. The only persons entitled to be present at a meeting of shareholders are those entitled to vote thereat, the directors of our company,Company, the auditor of our companyCompany and others who although not entitled to vote are entitled or required to be present at the meeting. Any other person may be admitted only on the invitation of the chairman of the meeting or with the consent of the meeting. If a corporation is winding-up, the Ontario Business Corporations Act (Ontario) permits a liquidator appointed by the shareholders, during the continuance of a voluntary winding-up, to call and attend meetings of the shareholders. In circumstances where a court orders a meeting of shareholders, the court may direct how the meeting may be held, including the parties entitled, or required, to attend the meeting.


Limitations on Rights to Own Securities


There is no limitation imposed by Canadian law or by the articles or other charter documents on the right of a non-resident to hold or vote common shares or preference shares with voting rights, other than as provided in the

47



Investment Canada Act, as amended by the World Trade Organization Agreement Implementation Act.  The Investment Canada Act generally prohibits implementation of a reviewable investment by an individual, government or agency thereof, corporation, partnership, trust or joint venture that is not a “Canadian,” as defined in the Investment Canada Act (a “non-Canadian”), unless, after review, the minister responsible for the Investment Act is satisfied that the investment is likely to be a net benefit to Canada.


58


An investment in our voting shares by a non-Canadian (other than a “World Trade Organization Investor,” as defined below) would be reviewable under the Investment Canada Act if it were an investment to acquire direct control of our company,Company, and the value of our assets were $5.0 million or more.  An investment in our voting shares by a World Trade Organization Investor would be reviewable under the Investment Canada Act if it were an investment to acquire direct control of our company,Company, and the value of our assets equaled or exceeded $209 million.  A non-Canadian, whether a World Trade Organization Investor or otherwise, would acquire control of us for purposes of the Investment Canada Act if he or she acquired a majority of our voting shares.  The acquisition of less than a majority, but at least one-third of our voting shares, would be presumed to be an acquisition of control of our company,Company, unless it could be established that we were not controlled in fact by the acquirer through the ownership of voting shares.  In general, an individual is a World Trade Organization Investor if he or she is a “national” of a country (other than Canada) that is a member of the World Trade Organization (“World Trade Organization Member”) or has a right of permanent residence in a World Trade Organization Member.  A corporation or other entity will be a World Trade Organization investor if it is a “World Trade Organization investor-controlled entity” pursuant to detailed rules set out in the Investment Canada Act.  The United States is a World Trade Organization Member.

Certain transactions involving our voting shares would be exempt from the Investment Canada Act, including:  (a) an acquisition of our voting shares if the acquisition were made in connection with the person’s business as a trader or dealer in securities; (b) an acquisition of control of our companyCompany in connection with the realization of a security interest granted for a loan or other financial assistance and not for any purpose related to the provisions of the Investment Canada Act; and (c) an acquisition of control of our companyCompany by reason of an amalgamation, merger, consolidation or corporate reorganization, following which the ultimate direct or indirect control in fact of our company,Company, through the ownership of voting interests, remains unchanged.

Change of Control


Our authorized capital consists of an unlimited number of common shares and an unlimited number of preference shares. The Board of Directors, without any further vote by the common shareholders, has the authority to issue preference shares and to determine the price, preferences, rights and restrictions, including voting and dividend rights, of these shares. The rights of the holders of common shares are subject to the rights of holders of any preference shares that the Board of Directors may issue in the future. That means, for example, that we can issue preference shares with more voting rights, higher dividend payments or more favorable rights upon dissolution, than the common shares. If we issued certain types of preference shares in the future, it may also be more difficult for a third-party to acquire a majority of our outstanding voting shares.


Our articles do not contain any provisions that govern the ownership threshold above which shareholder ownership must be disclosed.

Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations



D.
Taxation
The following summary describes material Canadian federal income tax consequences generally applicable to a holder of our common shares who is not a resident of Canada, and who, for purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada), (i) holds such shares as capital property and (ii) deals at arm’s length with us.  Generally, common shares will be considered capital property to a holder provided that such holder does not hold such securities in the course of carrying on a business and has not acquired such securities in a transaction or transactions considered to be an adventure or concern in the nature of trade which includes a transaction or transactions of the same kind and carried on in the same manner as a transaction or transactions of an ordinary trader or dealer in property of the same kind.

This summary is based upon the current provisions of the Income Tax Act and the regulations thereunder and on an understanding of the published administrative practices of the Canadian Customs and Revenue Agency. This summary does not take into account or anticipate any possible changes in law, or the administration thereof, whether by legislative, governmental or judicial action, except proposals for specific amendment thereto which have been publicly announced by the Canadian Minister of Finance prior to the date hereof.

This summary does not address all aspects of Canadian federal income tax law that may be relevant to shareholders based upon their particular circumstances, and does not deal with provincial, territorial or foreign income tax consequences, which might differ significantly from the consequences under Canadian federal income tax law.


60


Shareholders are advised to consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the Canadian federal income tax law to their particular circumstances, as well as any Canadian provincial, territorial or other tax consequences or any U.S. federal, state or local tax consequences or other foreign income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of our common shares.

Taxation of Dividends.

A holder of a common share who is not resident in Canada for purposes of the Income Tax Act will be subject to Canadian withholding tax on dividends paid or credited, or deemed under the Income Tax Act to be paid or credited, to the holder of the common share. The rate of withholding tax under the Income Tax Act on dividends is 25% of the amount of the dividend. Such rate may be reduced under the provisions of an applicable international tax treaty to which Canada is a party. Under the tax treaty that Canada has entered into with the United States, the rate of Canadian withholding tax applicable in respect of dividends paid or credited by a Canadian corporation to a shareholder resident in the United States, is generally reduced to 15%, or 5% in the case of a corporate holder which owns 10% or more of the voting shares. A foreign tax credit for the tax withheld may be available under applicable US tax law to a US holder against U.S. federal income tax liability.  Moreover, pursuant to Article XXI of the Canada-U.S. Treaty, an exemption from Canadian withholding tax generally is available in respect of dividends

50



received by certain trusts, companies and other organizations whose income is exempt from tax under the laws of the United States.

Disposition of common shares.

A non-resident holder of a common share will not be subject to tax under the Income Tax Act in respect of a capital gain realized on the disposition of a common share unless the common share constitutes or is deemed to constitute “taxable Canadian property” as defined in the Income Tax Act. Shares of a corporation that are listed on a prescribed stock exchange (which includes shares traded on certain U.S. stock exchanges, including the Nasdaq National Market), are generally not considered to be taxable Canadian property. However, such shares are considered taxable Canadian property in the hands of a non-resident holder if, at any time during the 60-month period immediately preceding disposition by the holder, 25% or more of our issued shares of any class were owned by the non-resident holder together with persons with whom the non-resident did not deal at arm’s length.

An interest in or option in respect of common shares or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for common shares could constitute taxable Canadian property if the common shares that could be acquired upon the exercise of the option, the conversion or exchange rights or in which there is such interest are themselves taxable Canadian property.  Taxable Canadian property also includes any common share held by a non-resident if the non-resident used the common share in carrying on a business (other than an insurance business) in Canada, or, if the non-resident is a non-resident insurer, any common share that is its “designated insurance property” for the year. A non-resident whose common shares constitute or are deemed to constitute taxable Canadian property will realize upon the disposition or deemed disposition of a common share, a capital gain (or a capital loss) to the extent that the proceeds of disposition are greater than (or less than) the aggregate of the adjusted cost base to the holder of a common share and any reasonable costs of disposition.

One-half of any capital gain realized by a holder (a taxable capital gain) will be included in computing the holder’s income. One-half of any capital loss realized by a holder may, subject to certain restrictions applicable to holders that are corporations, normally be deducted from the holder’s taxable capital gains realized in the year of disposition, the three preceding taxation years or any subsequent taxation years, subject to detailed rules contained in the Income Tax Act.

A purchase by us of our common shares (other than a purchase of our common shares on the open market in a manner in which shares would normally be purchased by any member of the public in the open market) will give rise to a deemed dividend under the Income Tax Act equal to the difference between the amount we paid on the purchase and the paid-up capital of such shares determined in accordance with the Income Tax Act. The paid-up capital of such shares may be less than the cost of such shares to the holder. Any such dividend deemed to have been received by a non-resident holder will be subject to non-resident withholding tax as described above. The amount of any such deemed dividend will reduce the proceeds of disposition of the common share to the non-resident holder for the purpose of computing the amount of the non-resident holder’s capital gain or loss under the Income Tax Act.


61



Even if the common shares constitute taxable Canadian property to a non-resident holder and their disposition would give rise to a capital gain, an exemption from tax under the Income Tax Act may be available under the terms of an applicable international tax treaty to which Canada is a party. A holder resident in the United States for purposes of the Canada-U.S. Treaty will generally be exempt from Canadian tax in respect of a gain on the disposition of common shares provided that the value of the common shares is not derived principally from real property situated in Canada. Our common shares would qualify for this exemption, however Article XIII paragraph 5 of the Canada-U.S. Treaty provides that the treaty exemption does not apply where the U.S. resident holder was an individual who was a Canadian resident for 120 months during any period of 20 consecutive years preceding the time of the sale and was resident in Canada at any time during the ten years immediately preceding the sale and owned the shares at the time he/she ceased to be resident in Canada. If the exemption from such Canadian tax in respect of such gain is not available under the Canada-U.S. Treaty, a foreign tax credit may be available under applicable US tax law for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Non-residents are advised to consult their tax advisers with regard to the availability of a treaty exemption.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations


The following summary describes certain material United States federal income tax consequences arising to U.S. Holders (as defined below) from the purchase, ownership and sale of common shares. This summary is based on the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, final, temporary and proposed United States Treasury Regulations, revenue rulings and the administrative and judicial interpretationspronouncements of the regulations,Internal Revenue Service, and court decisions, all as in effect as of the date of this Annual Report and all of which are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis.

Treatment of Dividend Distributions


Subject to the discussion below under “Tax"Tax Status Of The Company – Passive Foreign Investment CompaniesCompany”, a distribution by our companyCompany to a U.S. Holder in respect of the common shares (including the amount of any Canadian taxes withheld thereon) will generally be treated for United States federal income tax purposes as a dividend to the extent of our company’sCompany's current and accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under United States federal income tax principles. To the extent, if any, that the amount of any such distribution exceeds our company’sCompany's current and accumulated earnings and profits, as so computed, it will first reduce the U.S. Holder’sHolder's tax basis in the common shares owned by him, and to the extent it exceeds such tax basis, it will be treated as capital gain from the sale of common shares.


While it is not anticipated that our companyCompany will pay dividends in the foreseeable future, the gross amount of any distribution from our companyCompany received by a U.S. Holder which is treated as a dividend for United States federal income tax purposes (before reduction for any Canadian tax withheld at source) will be included in such U.S. Holder’sHolder's gross income as ordinary income and generally will not qualify for the dividends received deduction applicable in certain cases to United States corporations. Pursuant to recently enacted legislation, ifIf you are an individual, dividends that we pay you through 20082010 will be subject to tax at long-term capital gain rates, provided certain holding period and other requirements are satisfied and provided that in the year such dividends are paid, or the preceding taxable year, we are not a  foreign personal holding company, apassive foreign investment company or a passive foreign investment company. (as discussed below).

For United States federal income tax purposes, the amount of any dividend paid in Canadian dollars by our companyCompany to a U.S. Holder will equal the U.S. dollar value of the amount of the dividend paid in Canadian dollars, at the exchange rate in effect on the date of the distribution, regardless of whether the Canadian dollars are actually converted into United StatesU.S. dollars at that time. Canadian dollars received by a U.S. Holder will have a tax basis equal to the U.S. dollar value thereof determined at the exchange rate on the date of the distribution. Currency exchange gain or loss, if any, recognized by a U.S. Holder on the conversion of

52



Canadian dollars into U.S. dollars will generally be treated as U.S. source ordinary income or loss to such holder. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors concerning the treatment of foreign currency gain or loss, if any, on any Canadian dollars received which are converted into dollars subsequent toas a distribution.


A U.S. Holder generally will be entitled to deduct any Canadian taxes withheld from dividends in computing United States taxable income, or to credit such withheld taxes against the United States federal income tax imposed on such U.S. Holder’sHolder's dividend income. No deduction for Canadian taxes may be claimed, however, by an individual (noncorporate) U.S. Holder that does not itemize deductions. The amount of foreign taxes for which a U.S. Holder may claim a credit in any year is subject to complex limitations and restrictions, which must be determined on an individual basis by each shareholder.basis. Distributions with respect to common shares that are taxable as dividends will generally constitute foreign source income for purposes of the foreign tax credit limitation. The limitation on foreign taxes eligible for credit is calculated separately with respect to specific classes of income. For this purpose, dividends distributed by our company with respect to the common shares will generally constitute “passive income.” Foreign income taxes exceeding a shareholder’s credit limitation for the year of payment or accrual of such tax can be carried back for two taxable years and forward for five taxable years, subject to the credit limitation applicable in each of such years. Additionally, the foreign tax credit in any taxable year may not offset more than 90% of a shareholder’s liability for United States individual or corporate alternative minimum tax. The total amount of allowable foreign tax credits in any year generally cannot exceed regular U.S. tax liability for the year attributable to foreign source taxable income. A U.S. Holder will be denied aThe limitation on foreign taxtaxes eligible for credit is calculated separately with respect to Canadian income tax withheld fromspecific classes of income. For this purpose, dividends received ondistributed by our Company with respect to the common shares will generally constitute "passive income." Foreign income taxes exceeding a shareholder's credit limitation for the year of payment or accrual of such tax can be carried back for one taxable year and forward for ten taxable years, subject to the extentcredit limitation applicable in each of such U.S. Holder has not held the ordinary shares for at least 16 days of the 30-day period beginning on the date which is 15 days before the ex-dividend date or to the extent such U.S. Holder is under an obligation to make certain related payments with respect to substantially similar or related property. Any days during which a U.S. Holder has substantially diminished its risk of loss on the common shares are not counted toward meeting the 16 day holding period required by the statute.

years.


Sale or Exchange of a Common Share


Subject to the discussion below under “Tax"Tax Status Of The Company – Passive Foreign Investment CompaniesCompany", the sale or exchange by a U.S. Holder of a common share generally will result in the recognition of gain or loss by the U.S. Holder in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized and the U.S. Holder’sHolder's basis in the common share sold. Such gain or loss will be capital gain or loss provided that the common share is a capital asset in the hands of the holder. The gain or loss realized by an individual (noncorporate) U.S. Holder on the sale or exchange of a common share will be long-term capital gain or loss subject to a reducedpreferential rate of tax if the common share had been held for more than one year.  If the common share had been held by such individual U.S. Holder for not more than one year, such gain will be short-term capital gain.  Gains recognized by a U.S. Holder on a sale, exchange or other disposition of common shares generally will be treated as United States source income for United States foreign tax credit purposes. A loss recognized by a U.S. Holder on the sale, exchange or other disposition of common shares generally is allocated to U.S. source income.  However, such loss must be allocated to foreign source income to the extent certain dividends were received by the U.S. Holder within the 24-month period preceding the date on which the U.S. Holder recognized the loss. The deductibility of a capital loss recognized on the sale, exchange or other disposition of common shares is subject to limitations. A U.S. Holder that receives foreign currency upon disposition of common shares and subsequently converts the foreign currency into U.S. dollars generally will have foreign exchange gain or loss based on any appreciation or depreciation in the value of the foreign currency against the U.S. dollar. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding treatment of any foreign currency gain or loss on any Canadian dollars received in respect of the sale, exchange or other disposition of common shares.

Tax Status of the Company


Personal Holding Companies.Controlled Foreign Corporations.  A non-U.S. corporation maycompany generally will be classifieda “controlled foreign corporation” under Section 957 of the Internal Revenue Code (a “CFC”) if more than 50% of its total voting power or the total value of its outstanding shares is owned, directly or indirectly, by citizens or residents of the U.S., domestic partnerships, domestic corporations, domestic estates, or domestic trusts (each as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code), each of which own, directly or indirectly, 10% or more of the total voting power of the outstanding shares of the company (a “10% Shareholder”).

If our Company is a personal holding company for United StatesCFC, a 10% Shareholder generally will be subject to current U.S. federal income tax purposes if bothwith respect to (a) such 10% Shareholder’s pro rata share of the following two tests are satisfied: (i) if“subpart F income” (as defined in Section 952 of the Internal Revenue Code) of our Company and (b) such 10% Shareholder’s pro rata share of the earnings of our Company invested in “United States property” (as defined in Section 956 of the Internal Revenue Code).  In addition, under Section 1248 of the Internal Revenue Code, any gain recognized on the sale or other taxable disposition of the common shares by a U.S. Holder that was a 10% Shareholder at any time during the last halffive-year period ending with such sale or other taxable disposition generally will be treated as a dividend to the extent of the company’s taxable year, five or fewer individuals (without regard to their citizenship or residency) own or are deemed to own (under certain attribution rules) more than 50%“earnings and profits” of the stock of the corporation by value and (ii) 60% or more of such non-U.S. corporation’s gross income derived from U.S. sources or effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business, as specifically adjusted, is from certain passive sources such as dividends

The Company does not believe that our company was notit currently is a personal holding company in 2003 and is not currently a personal holding company.CFC.  However, no assurancethere can be givenno assurances that either testour Company will not be satisfied ina CFC for the future.

Foreign Personal Holding Companies.  A non-U.S. corporation will be classified as a foreign personal holding company for United States federal income tax purposes if both of the two following tests are satisfied: (i) fivecurrent or fewer individuals who are United States citizens or residents own or are deemed to own (under certain attribution rules) more than 50% of all classes of the corporation’s stock measured by voting power or value and (ii) the corporation receives at least 60% (50% if previously an foreign personal holding company) of its gross income (regardless of source), as specifically adjusted, from certain passive sources. If such a corporation is classified as a foreign personal holding company, a portion of its “undistributed foreign personal holding company income” (as defined for United States federal income tax purposes) would be imputed to all of its shareholders who are U.S. Holders on the lastany future taxable day of the corporation’s taxable year, or, if earlier, the last day on which it is classifiable as a foreign personal holding company. Such income would be taxable as a dividend, even if no cash dividend is actually paid. U.S. Holders who dispose of their shares prior to such date would not be subject to tax under these rules. We believe that our company was not a foreign personal holding company in 2003 and is not currently a foreign personal holding company. However, no assurance can be given that our company will not qualify as a foreign personal holding company in the future.

year.


Passive Foreign Investment Companies.  A non-U.S. company will be a passive foreign investment company if 75% or more of its gross income (including the pro rata share of the gross income of any company (United States or foreign) in which the company is considered to own 25% or more of the shares (determined by market value)) in a taxable year is passive income. Alternatively, the company will be considered to be a passive foreign investment company if at least 50% of the value of the company’scompany's assets (averaged over the year) (including the pro rata share of the value of the assets of any company in which the company is considered to own 25% or more of the shares (determined by market value)) in a taxable year are held for the production of, or produce, passive income. For these purposes, the value of our assets is calculated based on our market capitalization. Passive income generally includes, among others, interest, dividends, royalties, rents and annuities.


If our companyCompany is a passive foreign investment company for any taxable year, a U.S. Holder, in the absence of an election by such U.S. Holder to treat our companyCompany as a “qualified"qualified electing fund”fund" (a “QEF election”"QEF election"), as discussed below, would, upon certain distributions by our companyCompany and upon disposition of the common shares at a gain, be liable to pay tax at the highest tax rate on ordinary income in effect for each period to which the income is allocated, plus interest on the tax, as if the distribution or gain had been recognized ratably over the days in the U.S. Holder’sHolder's holding period for the common shares during which our companyCompany was a passive foreign investment company. Additionally, if our companyCompany is a passive foreign investment company, U.S. Holders who acquire ordinary shares from U.S. decedents would be denied the normally available step-up of the income tax basis for such common shares to fair market value at the date of death and instead would have a tax basis equal to the decedent’sU.S. decedent's basis, if lower.


If our companyCompany is treated as a passive foreign investment company for any taxable year, U.S. Holders should consider whether to make a QEF election for United States federal income tax purposes. If a U.S. Holder has a QEF election in effect for all taxable years that such U.S. Holder has held the common shares and our companyCompany was a passive foreign investment company, distributions and gain will not be recognized ratably over the U.S. Holder’sHolder's holding period or subject to an interest charge, gain on the sale of common shares will be characterized as capital gain and the denial of basis step-up at death described above would not apply. Instead, each such U.S. Holder is required for each taxable year that our companyCompany is a qualified electing fund to include in income a pro rata share of the ordinary earnings of our companyCompany as ordinary income and a pro rata share of the net capital gain of our companyCompany as long-term capital gain, subject to a separate election to defer payment of taxes, which deferral is subject to an interest charge. Consequently, inIn order to comply with the requirements of a QEF election, a U.S. Holder must receive from our company

64


Company certain information. We intend to supply U.S. Holders with the information needed to report income and gain pursuant to a QEF election in the event our companyCompany is classified as a passive foreign investment company. The QEF election is made on a shareholder-by-shareholder basis and can be revoked only with the consent of the Internal Revenue Service.  A shareholder makes a QEF election by attaching a completed IRS Form 8621 (including the passive foreign investment company annual information statement) to a timely filed

54



United States federal income tax return and by filing such form with the IRS Service Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.listed on IRS Form 8621. Even if a QEF election is not made, a shareholder in a passive foreign investment company who is a U.S. Holder must file a completed IRS Form 8621 every year.


As an alternative to making a QEF election, a U.S. Holder may elect to make a mark-to-market election with respect to the common shares owned by him.him if such stock qualifies as “marketable stock.” To qualify as “marketable stock,” the stock must be regularly traded on a qualified exchange.  Under applicable Treasury regulations, a “qualified exchange” includes a national securities exchange that is registered with the SEC or the national market system established under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and certain foreign securities exchanges.  Under applicable Treasury Regulations, PFIC stock traded on a qualified exchange is regularly traded on such exchange for any calendar year during which such stock is traded, other than in deminimis quantities, on at least 15 days during each calendar quarter.  We cannot assure U.S. Holders that our common shares will be treated as regularly traded stock on a qualified exchange. If the mark-to-market election were made, then the rules set forth above would not apply for periods covered by the election. Under such election, a U.S. Holder includes in income each year an amount equal to fair market value of the common shares owned by such U.S. Holder as of the close of the taxable year over the U.S. Holder’sHolder's adjusted basis in such shares. The U.S. Holder would be entitled to a deduction for the excess, if any, of such U.S. Holder’sHolder's adjusted basis in his common shares over the fair market value of such shares as of the close of the taxable year; provided, however, that such deduction would be limited to the extent of any net mark-to-market gains with respect to the common shares included by the U.S. Holder under the election for prior taxable years. The U.S. Holder’sHolder's basis in his common shares is adjusted to reflect the amounts included or deducted pursuant to this election. Amounts included in income pursuant to the mark-to-market election, as well as gain on the sale or exchange of the common shares, will be treated as ordinary income. Ordinary loss treatment applies to the deductible portion of any mark-to-market loss, as well as to any loss realized on the actual sale or exchange of the common shares to the extent that the amount of such loss does not exceed the net mark-to-market gains previously included with respect to such common shares.

The mark-to-market election applies to the tax year for which the election is made and all later tax years, unless the common shares cease to be marketable or the IRS consents to the revocation of the election.


We dohave not believedetermined whether our company wasCompany may have been a passive foreign investment company during 2003. However, there2006. There can be no assurance that our companyCompany will not be classified as a passive foreign investment company in 20042006, or thereafter, because the tests for determining passive foreign investment company status are applied annually and it is difficult to make accurate predictions of future income and assets, which are relevant to this determination. U.S. Holders who hold common shares during a period when our companyCompany is a passive foreign investment company will be subject to the foregoing rules, even if our companyCompany ceases to be a passive foreign investment company, subject to certain exceptions for U.S. Holders who made a QEF election. U.S. Holders are urged to consult with their own tax advisors about making a QEF election or mark-to-market election and other aspects of the passive foreign investment company rules.


Back-Up Withholding and Information Reporting


U.S. Holders generally are subject to information reporting requirements and back-up withholding with respect to dividends paid in the United States on common shares, or proceeds paid from the disposition of common shares, unless the U.S. Holder provides an IRS Form W-9 or otherwise establishes an exemption.


The amount of any back-up withholding will be allowed as a credit against a U.S. Holder’s federal income tax liability and may entitle such holder to a refund, provided that certain required information is furnished to the IRS.

ITEM 15 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial OfficerCorporate Controller and the Chairman of the Board has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2003.2006.  Based on that evaluation, the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer,Chairman of the Board, concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

The Company’s


Although the Company continues to refine its disclosure controls and procedures from time to time, the CEO and Chairman of the Board have concluded that, as of December 31, 2006, the process was effective enough to ensure material information relating to the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries was accumulated and communicated up to management didin sufficient time for management to make decisions regarding the Company's disclosure as required by securities legislation.

Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

Management is aware that there is a lack of segregation of duties due to the small number of employees dealing with general, administrative and financial matters.  However, management has decided that considering the employees involved and the compensating control procedures in place, including substantive periodic review of financial statements to ensure that disclosure controls and procedures are effective, the risks associated with segregation are insignificant and the potential benefits of adding employees to more clearly segregate duties do not identify anyjustify the expenses associated with such increase.

There has been no change in the Company’sCompany's internal controlcontrols over financial

Northcore Technologies Inc.  2006 Annual Report F-1


REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Independent Registered Chartered Accountants

Directors of

Northcore Technologies Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of ADB Systems International Ltd.Northcore Technologies Inc. (the "Company") as atof December 31, 20032006 and 2002,2005 and the related consolidated statements of operations, deficit and cash flows for each of the three years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2003.2006. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’sCompany's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.


We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform anthe audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.


In our opinion, thesethe consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as atof December 31, 20032006 and 20022005 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the two-year period ended December 31, 20032006, in accordanceconformity with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.

The comparative figures for the year ended December 31, 2004, prior to the adjustments for discontinued operations as described in Note 4, were audited by another firm of Chartered Accountants

Comments by Auditors on Canada – United States Reporting Differences

United States reporting standards for auditors require the addition of an explanatory paragraph following the opinion paragraph when the financial statements and, in our opinion, such adjustments are affected by conditionsappropriate and eventshave been properly applied. 


The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that castthe Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raise substantial doubt on the Company’sabout its ability to continue as a going concern, such as thoseconcern.  Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 22.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Canadian generally accepted accounting principles vary in certain significant respects from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Information relating to the nature and effect of such differences is presented in Note 20 to the consolidated financial statements.  Although we conducted our audits in accordance with both

Through its wholly owned subsidiary, ADB Systems International Ltd. was created on August 30, 2002.  Upon implementation ofUSA, Inc., Northcore owns a special resolution of the shareholder of the Company and shareholders of ADB Systems International Inc. (“Old ADB”, formerly Bid.Com International Inc. (“Bid.Com”)), pursuant50 percent interest in GE Asset Manager, LLC (also referred to Section 182 of the Business Corporations Act (Ontario), the shareholders of Old ADB exchanged their shares for shares of the Company on a one-for-one basis on October 22, 2002.  All assets and liabilities of Old ADB, other than those related to retail activities (Note 13) were transferred to the Company on that date in the form of a return of capital.  ADB Systems International Ltd. conducted no activities prior to October 22, 2002.  Old ADB subsequently changed its name to Bid.Com International Ltd. (“Bid.Com Ltd.”).

These consolidated financial statements reflect the financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2003 and 2002, and results of its operations and its cash flows subsequent to October 22, 2002, and the financial position of Old ADB as at December 31, 2001 and results of operations and of cash flows of Old ADB for the 2002 period prior to October 22, 2002 and the year ended December 31, 2001 based upon continuity of interests accounting as no substantive change of ownership occurred.

joint venture launched with GE Commercial Finance.


2.CONTINUATION OF THE BUSINESS


While the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles applicable to a going concern, basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities during the normal course of operations, certain adverse conditions and events cast substantial doubt upon the validity of this assumption.  The going concern basis of presentation assumes that the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of operations.  The Company has not yet realized profitable operations and has relied on non-operational sources of financing to fund operations.  The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern will be dependent on management’s ability to successfully execute its business plan including ana substantial increase in revenue and seekingas well as maintaining operating expenses at or near the same level as 2006.  Management believes that it has the ability to raise additional forms of debt or equity financing.  Additional debt or equity financings such as issuance of loans or debentures, issuance of shares, conversion of warrants and exercise of options in the amount of $3.7 million are estimated to be required for 2004.financing if required.  The Company cannot provide assurance that it will be able to execute on its business plan or assure that efforts to raise such additional financings willwould be successful.


These consolidated financial statements do not include adjustments or disclosures that may result from the Company’s inability to continue as a going concern.  If the going concern assumption were not appropriate for these consolidated financial statements, then adjustments would be necessary in the carrying valuevalues of assets and liabilities, and the reported net losses and the balance sheet classifications used.


Management believes that continued existence beyond 20042006 is dependent on its ability to increase revenue from existing products, and to expand the scope of its product offering which entails a combination of internally developed software and partnershipsbusiness ventures with third parties.

3.SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Canada (Canadian GAAP), which are substantially the same as generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (U.S. GAAP), except as disclosed in Note 20.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared using accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will continue in operation for a reasonable period of time and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of operations (see(See Note 2).

Marketable Securities
Marketable securities include registered equity instruments, allare comprised of which are carried at the lower of cost and quoted market value.  Net unrealized losses on marketable securities related to an impairment, determined to be other than temporary in nature, are determined on the specific identification basis and are included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.  Marketable securities also include interest-bearing certificates carried at cost plus accrued interest which approximate market value.

CAPITAL ASSETS AND AMORTIZATION


Capital Assets and Amortization
Capital assets are carriedrecorded at cost less accumulated amortization.  Amortization is calculated on a straight-line basis in amounts sufficient to amortize the cost of capital assets over their estimated useful lives as follows:

Computer hardware

3 years

Computer software and licenses

1 year or life of the license

Furniture and fixtures

5 years

Building

20 years

Leasehold improvements

life of the lease

STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS

Strategic investments are carried at the lower of cost and estimated net realizable value.  Management has assessed the carrying value of the investments and recorded an impairment provision based on management’s best estimate of net realizable value.

SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS


Software Development Costs
The cost of non-core software internally developed for client applications through e-commerce enabling agreements and software licensing is expensed as incurred.  The cost

Translation of core software internally developed for client applications through e-commerce enabling agreements is capitalized and is amortized over two years.  The cost of core software internally developed for software licensing contracts is expensed as incurred.  The cost of acquired software and internally developed software for use in on-line retail operations is expensed as incurred.

F-9

Foreign Currencies


ACQUIRED SOFTWARE

The cost of core software acquired as a result of the acquisition of ADB Systemer ASA has been capitalized and is amortized over three years, the estimated useful life of the software.

ACQUIRED AGREEMENTS

Acquired agreements have been capitalized based on the estimated fair value of common share purchase warrants issued in exchange for entering into certain agreements and are amortized over the initial term of the agreements.  The fair value of these warrants is calculated based on the Cox-Rubinstein binomial valuation model.

TRADEMARKS AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

Trademarks and intellectual property are recorded at cost and amortized on a straight-line basis over two years.  Trademarks and intellectual property acquired as a result of the acquisition of ADB Systemer ASA, and directly attributable to core software, have been capitalized and are amortized over three years, the estimated useful life of the related software.

GOODWILL

In 2001, the Company adopted the provisions of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants Handbook sections 1581 and 3062, whereby the purchase price of an acquired business is allocated to all assets and liabilities, including identifiable intangible assets, based on their fair values.  Any purchase price in excess of those fair values is recorded as goodwill.  Goodwill must be tested annually for impairment on a fair value basis, and where the carrying value exceeds fair value, a goodwill impairment loss must be recorded.  This accounting policy became effective January 1, 2002 with a transition provision beginning July 1, 2001.  Management assessed the carrying value of the goodwill arising from the acquisition of ADB Systemer, and determined that a permanent decline had occurred in the fair value of goodwill at December 31, 2001 based on estimated future cash flows from the business acquired.

TRANSLATION OF FOREIGN CURRENCIES

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in Canadian dollars.  All foreign denominated transactions, other than those of self-sustaining subsidiaries, are translated using the temporal method whereby monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the rates in effect on the balance sheet date, non-monetary items at historical rates and revenue and expenses at the average monthly rate.  Gains and losses from foreign exchange translations are included in the statements of operations.

The Company’s foreign subsidiaries in the United States, Ireland and the United Kingdom and Australia are classified as fully integrated with the functional currency being the Canadian dollar.  The Company uses the temporal method of foreign currency translation for these operations.  Monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates in effect on the balance sheet date.  Non-monetary assets are translated at historic exchange rates.  Revenue and expense amounts are translated using the average monthly exchange rate for the yearrates except amortization of capital assets, which is translated at historic exchange rates.  Gains and losses from foreign exchange translations are included in the statement of operations.


The Company’s former subsidiary in Norway iswas classified as a self-sustaining operation whereby the functional currency of the operation is the Norwegian krone.  The Company usesused the current rate method of translation for these operations.  Assets and liabilities arewere translated at the rate of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date.  Revenue and expenses (including depreciation and amortization) arewere translated using the monthly average exchange rate for the year.rate.  Gains and losses from foreign exchange translations arewere included as a separate component of shareholders’ equity.

LOSS PER SHARE

On January 1, 2001, thedeficiency.  The Company adopted the provisions of sold its Norwegian subsidiary in 2006 (See Note 4).


Loss Per Share
The Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants Handbook section 3500, “Earnings per Share,” whereby the treasury stock method of calculating diluted earningsloss per share is used.  For theall years presented, all stock options, convertible debentures and warrants are anti-dilutive, therefore diluted loss per share is equal to basic loss per share.  The basic loss per share calculation is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year.

As required by Canadian GAAP, the Company has separated the liability and equity components of the Series A, B, and D secured subordinated notes.  Using the Cox-Rubinstein binominal valuation model, the Company has determined the fair value of the conversion feature and attached warrants at the issue dates of the secured subordinated notes.  The fair values of the conversion feature of the units, comprised of shares attached, warrants and liability components of the secured subordinated notes issued were $636,000, $300,000 and $64,000 respectively.  The $64,000 liability component will be accreted to $1 million over the term of the Series A, B, and D notes through the recording of non cash interest expense until such date at which the underlying notes are converted into common shares or mature.

In fiscal 2002, the Company incurred $150,000 of costs$6,000 associated with the issuance of the Series A, B and DE secured subordinated notes which waswere recorded as a reduction of the equity component of these notes.

19.RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

(a)                                  On August 30, 2002, the Company entered into a series of agreements with a lender, an unrelated party, whereby the lender granted to the Company a secured loan in the aggregate principal amount of $2 million (Note 6).  The Company and the same unrelated party also entered into an agreement whereby on-line retail operations were to be conducted by Bid.Com Ltd.  These operations utilized the on-line retail technology, experience and expertise of the Company developed and operated under the name “Bid.Com International Inc.” in the on-line selling of consumer products supplied by the lender.

On June 30, 2003, the Company exercised its option to transfer 100 percent of the issued shares of Bid.Com Ltd. in full settlement of the outstanding principal and accrued interest owed to the lender.

The Company owned 100 percent of the issued and outstanding shares of Bid.Com Ltd., but determined that, for accounting purposes, consolidation of Bid.Com Ltd. was not appropriate.  This determination was based upon the Company’s evaluation of its continuing ability to determine the strategic operating policies of Bid.Com without the cooperation of others, its ability to obtain the future economic benefits from the resources of Bid.Com Ltd., and its exposure to the related risk of ownership.  Therefore, the Company accounted for its investment in Bid.Com Ltd. on the equity basis.  The Company was not exposed to losses incurred by Bid.Com Ltd., and accordingly this investment was carried at a nominal amount.  U.S. GAAP required consolidation of the investment in Bid.Com Ltd. in the Company’s financial statements.  The impact of this U.S. GAAP difference from Canadian GAAP is disclosed in note 20.

Under U.S. GAAP stock-based compensation granted to employees is accounted for in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” or in accordance with SFAS 123 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.”  Prior to 2003, under United States GAAP the Company elected to follow APB 25 and no accounting recognition was given to stock options granted at fair market value until they were exercised.  Upon exercise, the proceeds were credited to shareholders’ equity.  Canadian dollars)In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure,” an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123.  This Statement amends FASB Statement No. 123, “Accounting for Stock- Based Compensation,” to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to fair value method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation.  In fiscal 2003, the Company elected to prospectively adopt the fair value method for stock-based compensation as prescribed in SFAS No. 148.  Under CICA 3870 and SFAS No. 148, the fair value of stock-based awards to employees is calculated through the use of option pricing models, even though such models were developed to estimate the fair value of freely tradable, fully transferable options without vesting restrictions, which significantly differ from the Company’s stock option awards.  The Company’s calculations for employee grants were made using the Cox-Rubinstein binomial model with weighted average assumptions as described in the following table.  As a result, the 2003 annual financial statements under U.S. GAAP reflect a stock-based compensation expense to employees of $193,000 for options granted on or after January 1, 2003.

Prior to fiscal 2003, SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” requires the disclosure of pro forma net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share had the Company adopted the fair value method from the date the standard was applicable.  The calculations for the pro forma disclosures of stock options granted prior to 2003 are reported below and were made using the Cox-Rubinstein binomial valuation model with the following weighted average assumptions:

(e) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH LIABILITY AND EQUITY ELEMENTS

(d)
Financial Instruments with Liability and Equity Elements

Under Canadian GAAP, the secured subordinated notes (see(See Note 7)8) are recorded based upon the relative fair values of the liability and equity components of the instruments.  The liability component is accreted to the face value of the subordinated notes over the term to maturity until the underlying notes are converted into common shares.  Under U.S. GAAP, upon issuance, the secured subordinated notes would have been recorded as a liability and reclassified to equity only upon conversion.  Accordingly, the interest accretion of $112,000 (2002$454,000 (2005 - $68,000)$405,000, 2004 - $266,000) that is recorded under Canadian GAAP is reversed under U.S. GAAP.


Additionally, under Canadian GAAP, the financing costs arising from the issuance of the convertible notes are allocated between the liability and equity components of the notes.  The financing costs associated with the liability component of the notes are deferred and amortized over the term of the underlying debt (See Note 6).  The financing costs associated with the equity component of the notes are charged to shareholders’ deficiency.  Under U.S. GAAP, all of the financing costs are deferred and amortized over the term of the underlying debt.  As a result, the 2006 amortization expense under U.S GAAP is $128,000 (2005 - $125,000, 2004 - $58,000) compared to an amortization expense of $62,000 (2005 - $63,000, 2004 - $32,000) under Canadian GAAP.  Furthermore, under Canadian GAAP, conversion of debt results in the allocation of any unamortized deferred financing charges associated with that debt to shareholders’ deficiency.  Under U.S. GAAP, such unamortized financing charges are expensed upon conversion of the associated debt.  Accordingly, under U.S. GAAP, an additional amount of $222,000 (2005 - $23,000, 2004 - $23,000), representing the unamortized financing charges associated with the conversion of the Series G and I notes (2005 - Series H notes, 2004 - Series F notes), is expensed.  The unamortized financing charges under Canadian GAAP, in the amount of $53,000 (2005 - $12,000, 2004 - $13,000), were allocated to contributed surplus upon the conversion of the Series G and I notes (2005 - Series H notes, 2004 - Series F notes).

(in Canadian dollars)



Further, under U.S. GAAP, the beneficial conversion feature represented by the excess of the fair value of the shares issuable on conversion of the subordinated notes, measured on the commitment date, over the amount of the loan proceeds to be allocated to the common shares upon conversion would be allocated to contributed surplus.additional paid in capital.  This results in a discount on the subordinated notes that is recognized as additional interest expense over the term of the subordinated notes and any unamortized balance is expensed immediately upon conversion of the subordinated notes.  Accordingly, for U.S. GAAP purpose,purposes, the Company has recognized a beneficial conversion feature in 2003, with respectthe amount of $220,000 relating to the Series EJ subordinated notes,notes.  In 2005, the Company recognized beneficial conversion features of $96,000 and in 2002, with respect$664,000 relating to the Series A through DI subordinated notes.  In 2004, the Company recognized beneficial conversion features of $20,000, $90,000 and $49,000 relating to Series F subordinated notes, of $389,000.Series G subordinated notes and Series H subordinated notes, respectively.  An interest expense of $64,000 (2002$698,000 (2005 - $316,000)$117,000, 2004 - $126,000) results from the amortization of the discount over the term to maturity of those subordinated notes as well as the unamortized discount for those subordinated notes converted during the year.  Canadian GAAP does not require the recognition of any beneficial conversion feature.

(f) ADDITIONAL DISCLOSURES AS REQUIRED IN ACCORDANCE WITH UNITED STATES


(e)  
Investment in Jointly Controlled Company

Canadian GAAP

requires the proportionate consolidation of investments in joint ventures.  Proportionate consolidation is not permitted under U.S. GAAP; instead investments in joint ventures are accounted for in accordance with the equity basis of accounting.


Although the application of proportionate consolidation has no impact on the Company’s net loss or shareholders’ deficiency, it does increase the amounts reported for the Company’s current assets, current liabilities, revenue, expenses and cash flow from operations as compared to the amounts that would otherwise be reported under U.S. GAAP.  As allowed under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, this difference has not been reflected in the table of certain consolidated balance sheet items presented above.

(f)
Additional Disclosures as Required in Accordance with U.S. GAAP

U.S. GAAP requires the disclosure of the allowance for doubtful accounts.  The accounts receivable balance reported on the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2006, includes an allowance for doubtful accounts in the amount of $nil (2005 - $59,000).

U.S. GAAP requires the disclosure of accrued liabilities that exceed five percent of current liabilities.  Included in accrued liabilities at December 31, 20032006 are accrued interest payable of $574,000 (2005 - $363,000), accrued vacation pay of $nil (2005 - $293,000), and accrued audit fees of $145,000 and accrued compensation expenses (severance and unpaid vacation) of $228,000 (2002 – $482,000)$95,000 (2005 - $140,000).


U.S. GAAP requires the disclosure of non-cash interest components incurred during the year.  In 2003,2006, the Company incurred $126,000 (2002$698,000 (2005 - $117,000, 2004 - $68,000)$126,000) in non-cash interest expense associated with secured subordinated notes.

Under U.S. GAAP, EITF 01-09 requires, in certain circumstances, that the demand loan thatwarrants issued to customers be recorded as a reduction of revenue.  Accordingly, in 2006, depreciation and amortization and revenue were reduced by $nil (2005 - $nil, 2004 - $150,000) under U.S. GAAP.  During 2005, comparable guidance was settled through the transfer of the investmentissued in an associated company (Note 6).

(h) IMPACT OF NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The FASB issued SFAS No. 132 (revised 2003), “Employers’ Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits”.  This statement revises employers’ disclosures about pension plans and other postretirement benefit plans.  It requires additional disclosures to those in the original Statement 132 about the assets, obligations, cash flows, and net periodic benefit cost of defined benefit pension plans and other defined benefit postretirement plans.  This StatementCanada, which is effective for financial statements with fiscal years ending afterin 2006.


(g)
  Impact of New Accounting Pronouncements
In December 15, 2003.  The adoption of SFAS No. 132 had no effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial position for 2003.

The FASB made amendments to SFAS No. 133, “Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”.  The amendments set forth in Statement 133 improve financial reporting by requiring that contracts with comparable characteristics be accounted for similarly.  This Statement is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003.  The guidance should be applied prospectively.  The Company did not engage in the use of derivative instruments or establish hedging relationships.  The adoption of SFAS No. 133 had no effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial position for 2003.

In April 2003, the FASB issued a staff position No. SFAS 140-1, “Accounting for Accrued Interest Receivable Related to Securitized and Sold Receivables under Statement 140.”  This staff position addresses the issue of how accrued interest receivable related to securitized and sold receivables should be accounted for and reported under Statement 140.  This guidance was effective for fiscal quarters beginning after March 31, 2003.  The adoption of SFAS No. 140-1 had no effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial position for 2003.

In June 2001, FASB issued SFAS No. 143 “ Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations.”  SFAS No. 143 requires the Company to record the fair value of an asset retirement obligation as a liability in the period in which it incurs a legal obligation associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets that result from acquisition, construction, development and/or normal assets.  The Company is required to also record a corresponding asset that is depreciated over the life of the asset.  Subsequent to the initial measurement of the asset retirement obligation, the obligation will be adjusted at the end of each period to reflect the passage of time and changes in the estimated future cash flows underlying the obligation.  The Company was required to adopt SFAS No. 143 on January 1, 2003.  The adoption of SFAS No. 143 had no effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial position for 2003.

The FASB issued SFAS No. 145, “Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections”, requires that, for fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002, gains and losses from the early extinguishments of debt no longer be classified as an extraordinary item, net of income taxes, but be included in the determination of pretax earnings.  There was no effect on the adoption of SFAS No. 145 on the Company’s results of operations and financial position for 2003.

In July 2002,2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, “ Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities,” which requires companies to recognize costs associated with exit or disposal activities as incurred rather than at the date of commitment to an exit or disposal plan.123(R), "Share-Based Payment".  SFAS No. 146 is123(R) requires employee stock options and rights to purchase shares under stock participation plans to be applied prospectively to exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002.  The adoption of SFAS No.146 had no effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial positionaccounted for 2003.

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure,” an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123.  This Statement amends FASB Statement No. 123, “Accounting for Stock- Based Compensation,” to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to fair value method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation.  In addition, this Statement amends the disclosure requirements of Statement No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements.  Certain of the disclosure modifications are required for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002 and are included in the notes to these consolidated financial statements.  In fiscal 2003, the Company elected to prospectively adoptunder the fair value method, for

In November 2002,over the FASB issued interpretation No. 45 “ Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others” (“FIN 45”), which requires certain disclosures of obligations under guarantees.service periods.  The disclosure requirements of FIN 45SFAS No. 123(R) are effective for the Company’sfirst fiscal year ended December 31, 2003.  FIN 45requires thebeginning after June 15, 2005. SFAS No. 123(R) allows for either prospective recognition of a liability by a guarantor atcompensation expense or retrospective recognition, which may be back to the inceptionoriginal issuance of certain guarantees entered into or modified after December 31, 2002, based on the fair value of the guarantee.  There was no effect on the adoption of FINSFAS No. 45 on the Company’s results of operations and financial position for 2003.

In January 2003 and December 2003, the FASB issued interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“FIN 46”), and its revision, FIN 46-R, respectively.  FIN 46 and FIN 46-R address the consolidation of entities whose equity holders have either123.  The above standard did not provided sufficient equity at risk to allow the entity to finance its own activities or do not possess certain characteristics of a controlling financial interest.  FIN 46 and FIN 46-R require the consolidation of these entities, known as variable interest entities (“VIE,s”), by the primary beneficiary of the entity.  The primary beneficiary is the entity, if any, that is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the VIE’s activities, entitled to receive a majority of the VIE’s residual returns, or both.  FIN 46 and FIN 46-R will be effective for the Company’s annual financial statements commencing January 1, 2004.  The Company is continuing to evaluate its investments to determine which, if any, will be impacted by the adoption of FIN 46 and FIN 46-R.  Adoption of both of these standards is not expected to have a materialsignificant impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The Emerging Issues Task Force reached a consensus on Issue 00-21, addressing how to accountflows for arrangements that involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services, and/or rights to use assets.  Revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables are divided into separate units of accounting if the deliverables in the arrangement meets the following criteria: (a) the delivered item has valueyear ended December 31, 2006.
