The Corporation agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to, not later than the 60th day after the Closing Date, to prepare and file a registration statement on Form S-1 (or, if Form S-1 is not then available, on such form of registration statement as is then available (the “Registration Statement”)) to enable the resale of the Common Shares, including Common Shares acquirable upon exercise of Class A Warrants and Class B Warrants (collectively the “Registrable Securities”) by the investors from time to time, subject to restrictions under Rule 415.  The Corporation also agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission within 120 days from the final Closing Date.
