financing. Under the terms of the financing, Arianne has issued 1,700,100 units at a price
of

. Participation of insiders of the
Company in the Offering constitutes a "related party transaction" as defined under Regulation 61-
101 respecting Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("Regulation 61-
101"). The Offering is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval

insiders nor the consideration being paid by insiders will exceed 25% of the Company's market
capitalization. The Company did not file a material change report 21 days prior to the closing of the
Offering as the details of the participation of insiders of the Company had not been confirmed at that
time.
