Each Unit consists of one common share and one common share purchase warrant. Each warrant will entitle the holder to acquire an additional common share for $0.135, for a period of 12 months from the date of closing of the Private Placement. Proceeds of the financing will be used for general working capital. All securities issued pursuant to the Private Placement are subject to a statutory hold period of four months plus one day from the date of issuance, in accordance with applicable securities legislation.
Insiders of the Company have subscribed for Units under the Private Placement. The issuance of Units to insiders pursuant to the Private Placement (the “Insider Participation”) will be considered a related party transaction within the meaning of TSX Venture Exchange Policy 5.9 and Multilateral Instrument 61-101 (“MI 61-101”). The Company intends to rely on the exemptions from the valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in Sections 5.5(b) and 5.7(1)(b) of MI 61-101 in respect of any Insider Participation.
