The Company's common shares will begin trading on a post consolidated basis on the TSX Venture Exchange on December 11, 2014.
As a result of the consolidation, the Company's currently outstanding 23,392,066 common shares will be reduced to approximately 5,848,017 common shares. No fractional shares will be issued. Any fractions of a share will be rounded to the nearest whole number of common shares. The Company's name and trading symbol will remain unchanged.

Registered shareholders will be required to exchange their share certificates representing pre- consolidation common shares for new share certificates representing post-consolidation common shares. Registered shareholders will be sent a transmittal letter from the Company's transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services Inc. ("Computershare"), as soon as practicable after the effective date of the consolidation. The letter of transmittal will contain instructions on how certificate(s) representing pre-consolidation shares may be surrendered to Computershare. The transfer agent will forward to each registered shareholder who has provided the required documents a new share certificate representing the number of post-consolidation common shares to which the shareholder is entitled. Until surrendered, each share certificate representing pre-consolidation common shares of the Company will be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of whole post-consolidation common shares to which the holder is entitled as a result of the consolidation.
It is the opinion of the Board of Directors of the Company that the consolidation will facilitate any new equity investment in the Company.
