Certain insiders of the company acquired units under the offering. Such participation was considered to be “related party transactions” within the meaning of Exchange Policy 5.9 and Multilateral Instrument 61-101 — Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions adopted in Policy 5.9. The company is relying on the exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 in respect of related party participation in the offering as neither the fair market value (as determined under MI 61-101) of the subject matter of, nor the fair market value of the consideration for, the transaction, insofar as it involves the related parties, exceeded 25 per cent of the company’s market capitalization (as determined under MI 61-101).
