RE: ACQUISITION OF MATERIAL EQUITY INTEREST That is a very interesting discovery JOG. These three companies are closely related since
MKF is owned by IG and Putnam is owned by Great-West Life. IG and GWL have long been sister
companies located next door to each other in Winnipeg. It is a little too much to believe that investment
managers from these three companies would have independantly decided to invest in a company
like HRT. One can only think that a common investment idea such as this would have been generated
by one individual who had a unique insight into HRT and was sharing his information with his
corporate brothers. (or perhaps information came from higher up at Power Corporation which has
such very good connections in the European investment scene.
I wonder at what prices these shares were acquired at and when they were acquired?
Obviously they were acquired at much higher prices than the current 52 cents !
