Warrants

no
effect on the cashflow of the Company and does
not
represent a cash payment of any kind.
 
A fair value of the derivative liability of
$215,687
was estimated on the date of the subscription using the Binomial Lattice pricing model. During the year ended

and the derivative liability – warrants value was valued at
$Nil
as at
