The Company paid finders’ fees of 5% to Canaccord Genuity Corp., Haywood Securities Ltd., Raymond James Ltd., and Sprott Global Resource Investments, Ltd. in respect of subscriptions from investors introduced by them as finders. The fee was paid in cash ($37,525), or at the finder’s election, through the issuance of that number of units equal to 5% of the number of units issued pursuant to such subscriptions (6,250 units). Insiders of the Company purchased 200,000 units and Pro Group members purchased a further 114,000 units.
The shares, and any shares issued on the exercise of the warrants, are subject to a restricted resale period under Canadian securities law until December 19, 2016.
