In addition to the disclosure contained in Item 3 of the Original Schedule 13D, on March 26, 2013, the Reporting Person subscribed for 3,960,000 Common Shares of the Issuer, at a price of C$7.40 per Common Share. The sources of funding for the purchase of the Common Shares were available cash on hand of the Reporting Person and the utilization of existing lines of credit of the Reporting Person.
