Based on the initial capital requirements identified in subsection 7.5, a two-step investment process appears feasible and appropriate. During the first year (year 1) a total investment of $330,000 would be sought. In exchange for this investment the Company would offer 171,372 units of ownership at a price of $1.93/unit. During the second year (year 2) an additional $920,000 in investment capital would be sought. In exchange for this investment the Company would offer 257,199 units of ownership at a price of $3.58/unit. The projected returns on investment (after six years) for these investments are given in Table 6 and Figure 10, based on the four market penetration rates previously noted.
