The Debentures and the Warrants comprising each Debenture Unit, and any Common Shares issuable upon conversion or exercise thereof, are subject to a statutory four month and one day hold period until September 30, 2020.In connection with the Offering, the Company paid eligible finders an aggregate cash fee of $100,000 and issued 200 compensation warrants to eligible finders (the “Compensation Warrants”). Each Compensation Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one Unit of the Company at an exercise price of $1,000 for a period of three years following the date of issuance. The Debenture Units issuable upon exercise of the Compensation Warrants are on the same terms as the Debenture Units sold under the Offering.The securities being offered have not been, nor will they be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.In connection with the Settlement Agreements, the Company paid 75% of the outstanding principal amount of the Maturing Debentures, any and all accrued and unpaid interest up to the date of maturity and amended 1,673,571 common share purchase warrants (the “ Amended Warrants”) in consideration for the cancellation of the Maturing Debentures and a release of the Company’s obligations under the Maturing Debentures.
