The broker's warrants were issued on the same terms as the warrants. Certain insiders of the company purchased a total of 5.1 million units under the private placement, which is a related party transaction within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 -- Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions.
