Each Unit consists of (i) one common share of the Company (a “Common Share”); and (ii) one common share purchase warrant (each a “Warrant”). Each full Warrant entitles the holder to acquire one additional Common Share at an exercise price of $0.08 until June 28, 2018, provided that if, at any time after the date which is four months and one day following the Closing Date, the volume weighted average price of the Common Shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) equals or exceeds $0.18 for 20 consecutive trading days, the Company may accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants, in which event the Warrants will expire upon the date (the “Accelerated Expiry Date”) which is 30 days following the dissemination of a press release by the Company announcing the Accelerated Expiry Date. The Company paid a finder’s fee of $14,000 and issued 280,000 broker warrants entitling the holder to acquire one Common Share for a period of 12 months at an exercise price equal to $0.06.
