The purpose of the Proportional Shares is to allow the Company to qualify as a foreign private issuer under United States securities laws. Each proportional share is convertible to 100 common shares at the request of the shareholder and in the discretion of the Company. Because of these conversion rights, for market capitalization and financial analysis purposes, it is appropriate to convert the proportional shares to common shares and add the product of the conversion (approximately 23,900,000 shares) to the current number of common shares outstanding. Further information regarding the Company’s share structure is available upon request.
