The Loan Agreement provides for debtor-in-possession financing in the maximum amount of CDN$2.85 million (the “DIP Facility”), which the Company was authorized and empowered to enter into by the Initial Order as amended by the Order issued by the Court of Queen's Bench of Alberta, Judicial District of Calgary (the “Court”) on February 16, 2012.  The DIP Facility will terminate on the earlier of March 26, 2013 or the termination of the Order from the Court providing creditor protection under the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (Canada) (“CCAA”).
 
The DIP Facility is a non-revolving, debtor-in-possession term loan facility which shall be advanced in a single advance. The DIP Facility has a final maturity date of March 26, 2013 and the Borrowers have the right to permanently repay the DIP Facility in full at any time after the three month anniversary of the date on which the funds are first advanced.  Interest shall be calculated at the rate of sixteen percent (16%) per annum on the daily balance outstanding under the DIP Facility.  Interest shall be calculated monthly in arrears, before and after maturity, default or judgment, with interest on overdue interest calculated in the same manner at any time on the daily balance outstanding at the same rate based on the actual number of days lapsed divided by 365.
 
Under the Loan Agreement, certain fees are associated with having entered into the DIP Facility: a facility fee equal to CDN $75,000 upon entry into the Loan Agreement; commencing on the date funds are first advanced, the Lender shall earn an amount of interest on the loan amount at least equal to CDN $85,500 (the “Minimum Fee”), and if such amount is not earned on or before the expiry of three months, or the payment in full of the DIP Facility, the balance owing on the account of the Minimum Fee shall be added to the loan amount; and, the Lender shall also pay the Borrower CDN $7,500 (the “Monitoring Fee”), quarterly in arrears.
 
The Loan Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, pre-conditions to the initial advance of funds under the DIP Facility and events of default.
