PART III -- NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, N-SAR, N-CSR or the transition report portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
Peace Arch Entertainment Group Inc. (the "Company") could not complete the filing of its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended August 31, 2006 due to a delay in obtaining and compiling information required to be included in the Company's Form 20-F, which delay could not be eliminated by the Company without unreasonable effort and expense. Regulatory authorities have been providing companies with their interpretation of some very complex U.S. accounting rules affecting a note disclosure in our previously reported financial statements. The interpretation relates to the U.S. accounting rules contained in the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities which determines the US accounting treatment of the Companys share purchase warrants.
The Company reports in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (Canadian GAAP) and provides note disclosure in its financial statements with respect to a reconciliation of Canadian GAAP to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). Under Canadian GAAP, share purchase warrants are accounted for as equity. Warrants which are required to be classified as equity are recorded at their initial fair value and there is no subsequent adjustment to that initial fair value. In contrast, warrants which are required to be classified as liabilities are required to be carried at fair value with changes in fair value recorded through current period earnings. It has been determined under U.S. GAAP that warrants which have an exercise price denominated in a currency other than a companys functional currency should be classified as liabilities rather than as equity. Those share purchase warrants must be fair valued with any resulting gains or losses being included in the calculation of U.S. GAAP earnings. In these circumstances a loss (gain) would be recorded by the Company when the value of the share purchase warrants increases (decreases).
As a result of this interpretation, the Company is required to restate the U.S. GAAP note included in its financial statements for the years ended August 31, 2006 and 2005.
In accordance with Rule 12b-25 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company will file its Form 20-F no later than the 15th calendar day following the prescribed due date.
