The LOI contemplates the Corporation and Daizee entering into a definitive agreement (the "Definitive Agreement") prior to May 15, 2020 (or such other date as may be agreed to by the parties). The Transaction is conditional upon the parties completing successful due diligence reviews of each other, the completion by Daizee (with the assistance of Navion) of an interim financing yielding at least $1.5 million in gross proceeds, requisite regulatory approvals, including the approval of the TSXV, and standard closing conditions, including the approval of the Transaction by directors of each of the parties Corporation and those conditions outlined below.
