Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement
 
On May 26, 2011, we announced the execution of an engagement letter with an agent and the commencement of a brokered private placement offering.  In light of recent market turmoil, we decided to discontinue that private placement offering and, on June 13, 2011, the agent and we terminated our engagement letter for our mutual convenience.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
 
On June 13, 2011, one of our investors exercised a share purchase warrant pursuant to which it purchased 255,000 of our common shares at an exercise price of $0.65 per share for gross proceeds to our company of $165,750. This investor is not a U.S. person (as that term is defined in Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933), this transaction took place outside of the United States and, in issuing these shares, we relied on Regulation S and/or Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933.
