participation is considered a related party transaction within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-
101 -

security holder approval requirements available under Sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(a) of MI 61-101,
respectively, on the basis that the participation in the Offering by insiders did not exceed 25% of the
