The Company paid a cash commission equal to 7% of the funds raised and 10% of the units sold in the form of broker warrants.

All securities issued pursuant to the private placement are subject to a hold period which expires on January 14, 2013.
Leon Pierhal, CEO, and Peter Copetti, Executive Director, agreed that “the high degree of interest in OPEL-s private placements reinforces our belief that our shareholders appreciate and support the new direction of the Company in divesting the solar division to focus on our core business which is ODIS Inc. and the POET Technology.”
