("Metanor") (TSX VENTURE: MTO) completes second tranche of $2,245,500 in private placement, bringing the total proceeds raised to $2,891,515 (including the first tranche of $646,015).

In connection with the private placement, Metanor paid a cash finder's fee of 8.5% to Marquest Capital Markets and Casimir Capital Ltd.
The President & CEO, the Executive Chairman and a director have participated in the Private Placement and, pursuant to Regulation 61-101 respecting protection of minority security holders in special transactions, ("Regulation 61-101"), such purchases constitute a "related party transaction". However, the transaction is exempt from the valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements pursuant to the exemptions set out in subsection 5.5 (a) and 5.7(1)(a) of Regulation 61-101, as the aggregate consideration does not exceed 25% of Metanor's market capitalization. A material change report has not been filed 21 days prior to the closing of the Private Placement as the participation had not been established at that time.
