The Company intends to rely on (i) an exemption from the formal valuation requirement provided under section 5.5(b) of MI 61-101 on the basis that the Corporation is not listed on any of the specified markets, and (ii) an exemption from the minority approval requirement provided under section 5.5(b) of MI 61-101 on the basis that, insofar as a related party is involved, neither the fair market value of the securities to be distributed, nor the consideration to be received by the Corporation for those securities, exceeds $2.5 million, in addition to satisfying the other criteria therein. The independent directors of the board of directors of the Company have unanimously passed a resolution approving the Offering, which includes the Insider Subscription.
