The units are then offered to purchasers resident in all provinces of Canada including Quebec. Revive may issue up to 33,333,333 units more, for maximum gross proceeds of $3.66 million (CA$5 million) under the listed issuer financing exemption, which makes units offered not subject to resale restrictions pursuant to applicable Canadian securities laws.
