Tango will sell the Kwena group to a director, Kevin Gallagher, in a transaction that constitutes a "related party transaction" and will require minority shareholder approval.

As consideration for the acquisition of the company’s 74% interest in the Kwena group, Gallagher has agreed to return for cancellation an aggregate of 39 988 160 common shares of Tango at a deemed price of C$0.05 a share, for C$1 999 508. In addition, outstanding indebtedness owed to the Kwena Group from Tango and its subsidiaries in the aggregate sum of C$723 021 will be forgiven.
