Three members of the board of directors participated in the financing. The participation of these directors is considered to be a related party transaction pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transaction (“MI 61-101”). The Company determined that exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 were available for the related party transaction pursuant to Section 5.5(a) and Section 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 on the basis that the fair market value of the transaction involving related parties was not more than 25 per cent of the company’s market capitalization.

It is intended that the proceeds from the offering will be allocated as follows: manufacturing and production to fulfill obligations with the company’s customers and to scale for cable industry requirements with customers like Mediacom Communications; focused engineering and product development; and working capital and operating expenses.
