This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any of the securities in the U.S. The securities have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold within the U.S. or to U.S. persons unless registered under the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such registration is available.
Related Party Disclosure
Mark T. Brown, CFO, purchased 100,000 common shares for aggregate proceeds of $13,000. As a result, his participation is considered a “related party transaction” under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 (“MI 61-101”). The directors of the Company have determined that his participation in the private placement is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements under MI 61-101 in reliance on the exemptions set forth in sections 5.5(c) and 5.7 (1)(a) of MI 61-101 and, in connection therewith, have determined that neither the fair market value of the securities to be distributed in the private placement nor the consideration to be received, insofar as it relates to him, exceeds 25% of the Company’s market capitalization. The Company did not file a material change report related to this financing more than 21 days before the expected closing of the private placement as required by MI 61-101 since the details of the participation by the related party of the Company was not settled until shortly prior to the closing of the Private Placement and the Company wished to close on an expedited basis for sound business reasons.
