In addition, the common share component of the Units includes an anti-dilution provision (the "Anti-Dilution Adjustment") whereby if at any time after the issue date until such date as the Company is listed on the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") (or other suitable exchange), the Company issues additional common shares for consideration per common share (the "Future Issuance Price") less than C$0.55, then the price per Unit shall be reduced concurrently with such issuance and the Company will issue additional common shares to the shareholder. The share warrant terms will not be impacted by the Anti-Dilution Adjustment.
Proceeds from the Offering will be used towards the Company's ongoing listing application with the TSXV and for general working capital purposes.
All securities issued in the Offering are subject to a statutory hold period of four months and a day from the closing date of the Offering. The Offering constituted a related party transaction within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 ("MI-61-101") as insiders of the Company (consisting of directors and officers of the Company) subscribed for an aggregate C$90,750 (165,000 Units) pursuant to the Offering. The Company is relying on exemptions from the valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in section 5.5(b) and 5.7(a) of MI 61-101, as the Company is not listed on a specified market and the fair market value of the participation in the Offering by insiders does not exceed 25% of the market capitalization of the Company, as determined in accordance with MI 61-101. The Company did not file a material change report in respect of the related party transaction at least 21 days before the closing of the Offering, which the Company deems reasonable in the circumstances in order to complete the Offering.
In addition to providing additional capital, the OM is expected to allow the Company to fulfill one of its requirements to be a "public company" as defined under subsection 89(1) of the Income Tax Act (Canada).
