purpose of providing amended information
regarding the 12-month period used in response to items 3C, 4A, 4B, 4C and 4F. The period used in

(NYSE). This amended filing reflects the daily average trading volume for the 12-month period from June 1, 2006 to May 31,
2007, which is within 60 days of the filing of this Form 15FA. As a result, this Amendment No. 1
includes revised responses to items 3C, 4A, 4B, 4C and 4F, and the addition of Exhibit 99.3, and
those items are hereby amended as follows:

Item 3. Foreign Listing and Primary Trading Market
A. Identify the exchange or exchanges outside the United States, and the foreign jurisdiction
in which the exchange or exchanges are located, on which you have maintained a listing of the class

the primary trading market for those securities.
Extendicare REITs Trust Units are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) in Toronto,
Canada, which currently constitutes the single and primary trading market for the Trust Units.
Prior to the Plan of Arrangement, all of the securities of Extendicare Inc. were listed on the
TSX, and the Subordinate Voting Shares of Extendicare Inc. were also listed on the NYSE.
Extendicare Inc. delisted from the NYSE on November 10, 2006, as part of the Plan of
Arrangement. The TSX was the primary trading market of the Subordinate Voting Shares for the
12-month period from November 9, 2005 to November 9, 2006.
B. Provide the date of initial listing on the foreign exchange or exchanges identified in response
to Item 3.A. In addition, disclose whether you have maintained a listing of the subject class of

Extendicare Inc.s common shares were listed on the TSX in 1974. The class of shares that

of Extendicare REIT began trading on the TSX on November 10, 2006.
C. Disclose the percentage of trading in the subject class of securities that occurred in the
identified jurisdiction or jurisdictions of your foreign listing as of a recent 12-month period.
