As of the date of this prospectus supplement, common shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $64,807,253 were not sold under the Prior Prospectus Supplements. Pursuant to Rule 457(p) under the Securities Act, an amount of $9,565.55 corresponding to the registration fee that was paid and remains unused with respect to securities that were previously registered pursuant to the Prior Prospectus Supplements and were not sold thereunder is offset against the registration fee due for this offering. The offerings pursuant to the Prior Prospectus Supplements have terminated.</ffd:OffsetNote>
