signed a non-binding term sheet with Global Corporate Finance (the

discount. The ordinary shares would be issued in tranches at the
Company’s sole discretion over the 30-month term, subject to terms
and conditions to be negotiated and included in the definitive
agreement. The Company would pay a $150,000 commitment fee (2% of
the ATM Financing Commitment) to the Purchaser, payable in ordinary
shares, also registered under the Registration Statement, half of
which would be payable when the Registration Statement is declared
effective and the remaining with the first sale of ordinary shares
by the Company.
