In accordance with the provisions of the Subscription Agreements, on April 4, 2011, the Company issued a total of 5,000,000 Units at $0.15 per Unit, each Unit consisting of one common share and one share purchase warrant, each warrant entitling the holder to purchase one (1) additional common share at $0.25 per share on or before April 3, 2013.
