Closing of the Offering would be subject to certain conditions typical for a transaction of this nature and the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, including the approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange.

In connection with the Offering, the Underwriters will receive on closing of the Offering a cash fee of 5.0% of the gross proceeds of the Offering. In addition, the company has agreed to pay an adviser fee of $90,000 to B. Riley & Co., LLC. in connection with Corporate Advisers services.
