PT International Development Corp. Ltd. (formerly ITC Corp.

Mr. Ching does not own any other shares of PT International other than those acquired from Mr. Suen. After the disposition, Mr. Suen held 670,676,465 PT International shares, representing approximately 39.72 per cent of the issue share capital of PT International.

As of Sept. 15, 2017, PT International owns, indirectly through its wholly owned subsidiaries: (i) 7,893,255 common shares in the capital of Burcon NutraScience Corp.; (ii) 253,815 warrants to purchase Burcon shares at a price of $2.58 per Burcon share (subject to adjustments), which are exercisable until Nov. 30, 2018; and (iii) the convertible unsecured promissory note in the principal amount of $2-million, which is convertible into 501,253 at a price of $3.99 per Burcon share (subject to adjustments) during the period commencing on or after July 1, 2016, and up to and including the maturity date, which is the earlier of: (a) three years from the issue of the note; and (b) the occurrence of an event of default.
