$730,547.13 of the debt being settled is held by related parties of the Company. Branson Corporate Services Ltd., a corporate services firm in which Adam Szweras, one of the directors of the Company, and his spouse own more than 10% received 2,806,120 units, bringing Branson Corporate Services Ltd.’s ownership position from nil to 0.6% on an undiluted basis and 1.2% on a partially diluted basis. L+G LLP (JRG Attorneys at Law, California) a law firm of which Aaron Johnson, a director of the Company, is one of three partners, received 14,893,580 units, bringing L+G LLP ‘s ownership position from nil to 3.2% on an undiluted basis and 6.2% on a partially diluted basis.

The Company relied upon the exemptions in sections 5.5(b) (Issuer Not Listed on Specified Markets) and 5.7(1)(a) (Fair Market Value Not More Than 25 Per Cent of Market Capitalization) of Multilateral Instrument 61-101. The material change report will be filed less than 21 days before the closing date of the debt restructuring, but believes that this shorter period is reasonable and necessary in the circumstances as the Company wishes to improve its financial position by reducing its accrued liabilities as soon as possible.
