(i) On February 16, 2011 NXT closed a non-brokered private placement (the "2011 Placement") for aggregate proceeds of $1,600,300 ($1,487,827 net of costs incurred of $112,473) including $40,000 subscribed for by two Officers of the Company.  NXT issued a total of 3,200,600 units at a price of $0.50 per unit, with each unit consisting of one NXT common share and one warrant, with each warrant entitling the holder to acquire an additional common share at a price of $0.60 per share on or before the expiry date of February 16, 2012 (see also note 11).  In connection with closing of the 2011 Placement, NXT paid finder's fees which included $72,600 cash and 145,320 warrants, which had the same terms as the other warrants that were issued.

 

The common shares were recorded at a value equal to the net proceeds received of $1,488,267 and reduced by $329,386 which was the estimated fair value attributed to the 3,345,920 warrants that were issued in the 2011 Placement.

 

(ii) In March and May 2012, NXT conducted private placement financings (the "2012 Financings") which consisted of units issued at a price of US $0.75 (the "Units"). Each Unit consisted of one NXT common share and one warrant (the "Warrants") to purchase an additional NXT common share at a price of US $1.20. The Warrants have a term of two years from the date of issue, and the expiry can be accelerated at the option of NXT in the event that it issues a press release advising that its common shares have traded on the US OTCBB Exchange at a price exceeding US $1.50 for 20 consecutive trading days. Any Warrants subject to acceleration shall expire 30 days after such notice.

 

In connection with the 2012 Financings, NXT paid finder's fees totalling US $183,612 and issued a total of 244,816 finder's warrants (which have the same terms as the Warrants noted above).  The 2012 Financings had three separate closings in March, 2012 and one on May 4, 2012, which are summarized as follows:

 

    March,     May 4,        
    2012     2012     total  
                   
Proceeds (in US dollars)   $ 2,216,005     $ 977,500     $ 3,193,505  
                         
Number of common shares issued     2,954,672       1,303,333       4,258,005  
                         
Number of Warrants issued     2,954,672       1,303,333       4,258,005  
Number of finder's warrants issued     162,416       82,400       244,816  
      3,117,088       1,385,733       4,502,821  

 

Two Officers of the Company subscribed for a total of US $40,000 of the 2012 Financings.

 

The common shares that were issued under the 2012 Financings were recorded at a value equal to the proceeds received of $3,183,132 ($2,886,024, net of related issue costs totalling $297,108), and reduced by $409,143 which was the estimated fair value attributed to the 4,502,821 Warrants that were issued (see also note 11).
