Unless otherwise agreed between the Company and the Lenders, the Loan may not be repaid during the first 12 months following the date of the Loan Agreement, other than following an event of default. Following that period, the Company may repay all or part of the Loan without premium or penalty, subject to giving not less than one calendar month's written notice.

Susan Labrum is the spouse of Rupert Labrum, a director of the Company, and Lucy Labrum is the adult daughter of Rupert Labrum.
