arrangement relating to one of Dr. Packirisamy’s technologies. Valorbec, acting through Gestion Valeo, acquired 933,120 shares in consideration for a licence to the technology, of which 377,800 were sold at an average share price of $1.49 resulting in approximately $570,000 in realized revenues. The remaining share holding of 555,320 were later consolidated resulting in a current consolidated holding of 27,766 shares. This share position represents future revenues, the value of which will be determined by the share price at the time of sale.” An email from Valeo Management quoted revenues from licensing at $595,000 and said that these revenues came from two licences” Commercialization Activities with Companies: 1. Enablence Technologies, Ottawa, Canada. • Commercialization of my invention on Wavelength Specific Spectrometer (US Patent 7324195 B2) with
