Mr. Colin Bray:

The exceptional function that was involved was the effort and time devoted above the normal activities that were involved in undertaking this activity while, in parallel and at the same time, carrying out their day-to-day jobs, which were extensive at that point, bearing in mind the downturn in the economy and our need to sustain our revenue model. The decision by the then board and CEO was that the payment was warranted.
