Pursuant to the Offering, the Company issued (i) 31,212,121 Common Shares that qualify as “flow-through shares” within the meaning of subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) at a price of $0.165 per National FT Share and (ii) 10,000,000 Common Shares that qualify as “flow-through shares” within the meaning of subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and subsection 359.1 of the Taxation Act (Québec) at a price of $0.18 per Québec FT Share.
