The Consolidation has been approved by the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX"), and a related bulletin was issued by the TSX on August 12, 2014.
The Company's outstanding options will also be adjusted on the same basis (10:1) as the Common Shares, with proportionate adjustments being made to exercise prices.
