The dual-listed Piedmont beneficially owns or exercises control or direction over 2 million shares of Vinland out of the 10.05 million shares issued and outstanding.
Piedmont subscribed for 2 million class B shares of Vinland at CA$1 per share through a private placement on Oct. 11, 2023, and then exchanged its class B shares for common shares on a one-for-one basis as of June 30, 2024.
