The meetings were held on April 22, 2020 (15,259 shares), May 20, 2020 ((16,339 shares) and June 23, 2020 (3,863 shares). This stock issuance is in accordance with the director compensation structure approved by the Company's Board of Directors on March 22, 2018 (as indicted in the Company's Proxy Statement filed with the Commission on April 18, 2018).
(2)	The Company uses the average volume weighted price (VWAP) of the Company's common shares for the 10 days preceding each meeting date to determine the value of the common shares. The VWAP was $0.1884 for the meeting held on April 22, 2020, $0.176 for the meeting held on May 20, 2020 and $0.7443 for the meeting held on June 23, 2020. This results in an average VWAP of $0.37.
