During the 2nd quarter of fiscal 2020 ended February 29, 2020, the Company privately repurchased a total of 490,120 common shares from two large shareholders, including an officer and director of the Company. During the third quarter, it was determined that as a private purchase of a Canadian incorporated company by a foreign entity, a Canadian Federal tax liability to the share sellers was created. The Company determined the outstanding liability was $562,713. The Company arranged with the share sellers to forward this amount to the Canadian tax authorities on their behalf to minimize possible penalties and interest. The Company received promissory notes from each seller to fully repay the Company for these payments.

 

Subsequent to the end of the period, the Company received full repayment of these amounts from each share seller totaling $562,713. See Note 19.
