It is not currently anticipated that any of proceeds of the Offering will be used for payments to Related Parties of the Corporation (as defined in the policies of the TSX Venture). If the Offering is not fully subscribed, the Corporation will apply the proceeds of the Offering to the above uses in priority and in such proportions as the Board of Directors and Management of the Corporation determine is in in the best interests of the Corporation.
