3)
1 relating to the new strategic alliance with Citibank (and Citibank taking a stake in CPU).
CITIBANK ALLIANCE:
The Citibank alliance is non-exclusive and is to explore new opportunities in North America and globally, initially for 2 years.
Included is the issue of ~12m options to Citibank (~2% of CPU's expanded share capital), exercisable @$1.83 over 4 years, but escrowed for the first 12 months.
Further options, to 3% of the expanded capital base will be awarded to Citibank depenent upon the identification of suitable opportunities, and associated performance hurdles.
Citibank could, therefore, end up with ~5% of the expanded CPU capital base.
