Before giving effect to the transfers, Mr. Pinna had ownership of 1,548,920 Common Shares, and control and direction over an additional 1,000 Common Shares, representing a total of approximately 28.75% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares. In addition, Mr. Pinna holds options to acquire 45,000 Common Shares which increased his ownership to approximately 29.34% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares, on a partially diluted basis.
