Note: Capital commitments represent the amount of capital that investors have indicated they would like to invest. Subject to the terms of the raise, investors may withdraw their interest before the closing date. In addition, and also subject to the terms of the raise, commitments might not come to fruition if the issuer does not meet its target by the closing date and the raise does not proceed.
