The warrants were issued in connection with a private placement which closed on March 17, 2011. The offering consisted of the issuance of 5,333,333 units at a price of $0.90 per unit, totalling $4.8 million. Each unit consisted of one (1) common share and one half-warrant, each full warrant entitling its holder to subscribe for one (1) common share at a price of $1.40 until March 19, 2012. The warrants are subject to an acceleration clause if the common shares of Azimut are traded at a price of $2.00 or more for 20 consecutive days. The exercise price of warrants remains unchanged and no warrant has been exercised to date.
