The Company is not obligated to make any sales of Common Shares under the Amended Equity Distribution Agreement. The Company has the flexibility to terminate the Amended Equity Distribution Agreement prior to reaching the US$119,226,903 in gross proceeds.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the ATM Program, if any, principally for general corporate and working capital requirements, funding ongoing operations, to repay indebtedness outstanding from time to time, to complete future acquisitions, or for other corporate purposes.
