Tax Credits Available to Datawitness Investors
Jan 22nd 2007

Richmond, British Columbia – January 22, 2007 – Datawitness Online Ltd. obtained Eligible Business Corporation (EBC) status and can raise equity capital under the New Media Venture Capital Program offered by the Province of British Columbia. "EBC status allows us to accept equity capital from investors without having to set up a Venture Capital Corporation. This investment structure lets us connect directly with investors who also have expertise, experience and contacts that will help us grow," said CEO Jag Gillan.

Investors under the New Media Venture Capital Program qualify for a tax credit certificate entitling them to a tax credit under section 21 of the Income Tax Act. The credit is equal to 30% of the amount invested, in the then current calendar year or, in the case of a shareholder who is an individual and who makes an election referred to in section 21 (16) of the Income Tax Act, in the 60 days immediately following that calendar year.
