The dilution arises as a result of any future conversion of convertible
debentures. The directors are of the opinion that the debentures will
not be converted in the foreseeable future and therefore no dilution is
anticipated for the foreseeable or prior future. No dilutive effect
has been presented in respect of the current or prior year as this would
be anti-dilutive. |
