10. Lossco operates through permanent establishments in the Provinces of XXXXXXXXXX. Lossco has an allocation factor of approximately XXXXXXXXXX% to the Province of XXXXXXXXXX, approximately XXXXXXXXXX% to the Province of XXXXXXXXXX and of approximately XXXXXXXXXX% to the Province of XXXXXXXXXX, based on the interprovincial allocation for Lossco’s XXXXXXXXXX taxation year.
